4 - Ronald Araújo

[jamrock]

Everyone, apart from Yamal, can be sold.

Says more about our current squad quality than anything else.

🥱🥱

I can't believe they are selling to a bum club like Juve. You just know it's some cut rate price too

Not really. There is quite a few other players whose sale would not make any sense.

Selling Araujo does make sense especially if he's unsettled however not sure Juve would be the destination Barca can profit from the most. Difficulty is he'll want CL football, so the list of suitors will be fairly small.

Out of the Barca players of the last few years, he's one of my more favourable but can't keep an unsettled player.

❌❌ Barça made two renewal offers to Araújo, one in February and one after his injury over the summer and he didn’t respond to either of them. [Cadena SER]

Laporta's media machine is gonna have to work on two fronts now, they have to make Araujo the bad greedy guy now. Sure the usual Laporta worshipers will belive, others not so much.

[MontenegrinCuler]

Juve fans skeptical of him too. Say he has a bozo trait and treats the ball like a bomb.

 

[xXKonan]

We have been trying to renew him for ages like Frenkie but no avail.

I hate the idea of selling him but It seems like it'll be impossible to renew him unless it's on his and his agent's terms.

 

[RedxMAK]

Future capitano, yes he got blamed harshly for the PSG disaster but he can still make up for it. Why would we sell him in a situation like this we only have 2 great CBs and that’s it.

 

[jamrock]

Araujo 50m
De jong -50m.
Garcia 10m.

Net 10m, we cooking

Why would we sell him in a situation like this we only have 2 great CBs and that’s it.

If he wants to leave, it's better to get a good amount of money for him we can now invest into the squad properly thanks to the 1:1 rule, than forcing him to stay. The nearer his contract end is in summer 25, the less money we can ask for him. Better to have €50m to invest into the squad than a semi-motivated Araujo on the bench.

Araujo’s agent likely trying to leverage Juventus wages to negotiate better terms than those the club have already offered in the renewal

I think the player is certainly as reliable if not more valuable than Jules but unsustainable to have the entire defense with these high wages - something will have to give and I doubt Deco et al will deviate from the salary structure in mind.

So, sell Kounde if that's the case...

Seriously, selling Araujo is WORSE OFFENCE and DESERVING much more the vote of no-confidence than the Olmo debacle

 

[Birdy]

Cesc, Griezmann & Dembele were all starters when they have left, to name a few. Araujo so far isn't a starter either.
We don't know if we are lowballing him, and it doesn't make sense that Araujo agent is having a disagreement with us for 2nd time, under a different SD. Why is Araujo is the only one we keep lowballing in 3 years?
How do you know our offer is bad? Or that he is underpaid? Shitology? There is no concrete evidence of that.

dude what are you even talking about? Trying to justify every kind of shit Laporta does?

Araujo had always been a starter WHEN NOT INJURED, since 2021
He will reclaim his spot now over Inigo easily...

As for the 'starters', the ones you mention were all expandable bar Dembele, who we did not want to sell, he left himself
