In front of the possible exit of Héctor Bellerín, the directive of the FC Barcelona could close an operation of last hour in the market internal. As it confirmed the chain 'ESPN', Joan Laporta could close in brief the cession of Julián Araujo, defender of 21 years that would leave to Los Angeles Galaxy by six months for recalar in the Barça with index card of the filial and an option of purchase by a mount near to the 5 million euros.

In his go through the Major League Soccer (MLS), the one of California adds a pair of so many and 14 assistances in 111 apparitions. The Barça follows to the international Mexican from does months and the approach with the Galaxy reinforced after the traspaso of Riqui Puig the summer happened to 'cost zero'. Finally, the directive decanted by Bellerín, but the Catalan has not had a good semester and, if it does not go out this week, will do it in July when finalising the season.

Conscious of the few minutes that will have, Héctor sees with good eyes his traspaso to the Sporting Clube of Portugal, but the negotiation with the ones of Lisbon has complicated in the last hours.

Like this it plays Julián Araujo

The defender of 21 years formed in a Barça Academy in the United States and played the World-wide Sub-20 of Poland 2019 with the combined of the 'bars and the stars'. Araujo Stands out by his rapidity and powerful hit, being a right side that goes without fear to the crosses and with a gone and constant turn that denotes his good physical state. Besides, has good dribbling and is used to desbordar until background line, attributes that denote his 'DNA' culé.

Although it would arrive with index card of the Barça Atlètic, Xavi Hernández would have green light to summon him in the first team when it wish it. Rafa Márquez, technician of the filial, has been one of the main promoters of his signing and, if it concretises the operation, the Mexican would be available for the visit of the culés the Saturday to the EU Cornellá. However, the future of the 'case Bellerín' will be determinant for the operation.
