“Renewing Araujo is a priority”

Ronald Araujo has become one of the defensive mainstays of the Barça Y, as we publish in MD, in the next few days a meeting with his representative is scheduled to advance in his renewal. The Uruguayan contract ends in 2023, but in the azulgrana club they will bet heavily on his renewal to ensure the continuity of a player called to be very important in the future.

In this line, the technician referred Xavi Hernandez, in the press conference prior to the duel of cotavos at the end of the Copa del Rey against him Athletic, by ensuring that the renewal of Araujo should be “priority” for the Barça.

“His renewal is a priority. You are already seeing that he is a very important piece for me as a coach and for the team. He is an extraordinary defender. He has a winning and positive character. It is very important that they can reach an agreement quickly because he is a player much needed, now and in the future. I am very happy with Ronald’s performance and how he is off the pitch as well. His behavior and attitude are greatly appreciated. It all adds up and Ronald is a guy who adds a lot”, he said Xavi Hernandez, very happy with the level of the Uruguayan and his sacrifice of playing with his recently operated hand in the Spain Supercup.

Remember that your agent Flavio Perchman pointed out a few days ago that the only desire to Araujo is to continue playing in the Barça and came to the step of the information that placed the Real Madrid in the footsteps of the Uruguayan.
