The summer signing market is presented for the Barçathat faces the need to balance its accounts while restructuring a upward template but with a margin of improvement. In that context, one of the names that has resonated the most in the neighborhood offices in recent weeks is that of Ronald Araujo. The Uruguayan central, until recently considered untouchable, has lost credit after recovery, a doubtful performance and the fuida threats. It is for all this for what is received from the Barça with pleasure the interest of Milan in a barter between Lion y Araujo.
The directive, with Joan Laporta y Deco In front, they left an open door at the exit of Araujo When they closed their renewal until 2030, with an output clause of 65 million euros only during this summer. The reasons to think about a way out of Araujo They are multiple: an irregular performance, persistent physical doubts and, above all, errors in key moments that have undermined both the coaching staff and the fans.
To all this is added a contractual situation that considerably elevates your file. However, the main obstacle to your departure is the lack of relevant offers. Hence the interest of Milan Open the eyes of a Barça that could negotiate for the Uruguayan but never get off much more from its current termination clause.
The set Rossoneri It has been valuing the incorporation of Araujo. Con Sergian Conception At the controls of the new project, the Italian club considers a priority to strengthen its defense with an international center. However, the Milan It does not contemplate to disburse such a high amount and has put on the table of Barça an alternative that could transform the panorama: a direct exchange between Araujo y Rafael Lionas various Italian media point out.
Lion It is one of the most unbalanced extremes in Europe, it already demonstrated it a few days ago against Spain with Portugal and is, for more than a year, a real objective for the Barçaalthough at this time it is not the first option of Deco y Flick To reinforce the bands. His physical power, imbalance and versatility capacity make him the type of offensive player that fits with the philosophy of the new Barça of Which one Flick. Although its clause exceeds 100 million, in the offices of the Camp Nou they believe that its signing could be viable if it includes Araujo In the operation.
In sports terms, the lace of Lion In the team it would be immediate. His ability to play as much as extreme and in Punta makes it a very valuable piece for an offensive trident that already has talents such as Lamine YAMAL y Raphinha. From the club it is confident that under the direction of Flick, the Portuguese could definitely exploit its potential, which has been slowed down by its intermission.
Meanwhile, the possible march of Araujo It no longer generates the same level of concern as in previous seasons. The irruption of Pau Cubarsí As an undisputed holder, the recovery of Andreas Christensen and the reliable performance of Iñigo Martínez y Eric García They offer enough guarantees in the rear. The sports direction also values that line with some signing of medium profile that allows to cover the decline of the Uruguayan without great shocks.
