Ronald Araujo’s contractual situation is pushing FC Barcelona to think about his departure. And that’s good, because Paris Saint-Germain would be ready to splurge to afford the Uruguayan central defender.
Relations between Paris Saint-Germain and FC Barcelona are not in good shape. The activation of Neymar’s release clause by Parisian management in 2017 ignited the powder. The matches which followed, between the two teams, did not necessarily tend towards appeasement. However, the two teams could well be forced to enter into discussions again, after the transfer a year and a half ago of Ousmane Dembélé to the capital. Ronald Araujo, whose current contract ends in June 2026, does not want to extend according to the terms proposed by Barça management. In search of a new leader in central defense, PSG could benefit.
According to information from Don BalonParis Saint-Germain would have planned to do what is necessary to afford Ronald Araujo in the coming months. The central defender of FC Barcelona will be at the end of his contract in 2026, which has several consequences. Either the Catalan club manages to find an agreement for an extension, or it sells it at a high price next summer, or it agrees to lose it freely at the end of next season. Ronald Araujo is already negotiating with PSG, again according to the Spanish media, which adds that the capital club is preparing “ a monstrous offer ».
Ronald Araujo, PSG’s next big move?
Furthermore, Luis Enrique is a big fan of the man and his profile. The Parisian coach particularly appreciates the intensity of his game and his physique, even if he is coming back from a long injury. Regardless, FC Barcelona does not seem ready to let him leave freely. In the financial emergency, the Blaugrana will in any case have no other choice than to sell their player with high market value when the opportunity arises. As a reminder, Ronald Araujo is today estimated at 70 million euros according to Transfermarkt, the highest rating of his career.
