As FC Barcelona prepares to face Real Madrid in the final for the first title of the season, the Catalan club must manage an unexpected crisis. Ronald Araujo, defensive pillar and key element of the squad, is at the center of persistent rumors about his imminent departure. Although an offer of 35 million euros from Juventus was deemed insufficient by Barcelona leaders, sources say the player would like to leave the club if a more substantial offer came along.
Araujo, the source of the leaks?
This situation causes internal turmoil, with Barça accusing Araujo of leaking information, considered unwelcome at such a crucial moment of the season, as revealed by the daily Mark. For sports management, these speculations can only come from the Uruguayan and this could disrupt the concentration necessary for such a decisive Clasico. The leaders believe that Araujo could have waited until the end of this shock to discuss his future, especially as the transfer window remains open for another three weeks. While the player has not officially spoken, tensions are palpable, and the club is inflexible: a possible sale will not take place below 70 to 80 million euros.
