MD is reporting the deal is not done yet. Apparently barça denied closing it, despite argentinian media saying it is a done deal.

I have seen him play for Argentina's U17 team a couple of years ago and he looked like a good prospect. He's a skilful forward who can also play as a left winger. A good dribbler more than a pure goalscorer.

He hasn't played much for Boca's first team so it's hard to say how he has progressed but would be an interesting addition to the B team.

Speaking to the media, here's what ARAUJO had to say:

"I imagine myself playing alongside MESSI, Xavi, INIESTA, MASCHERANO. These players are a group, I can’t pick a favourite."

"I'm very happy to realise the dream of joining Barca. Barcelona are the best club in the world and I'll give it my all to play for the first team as soon as possible."

"The Barca train came by last year, when the club came looking for me, and now that I’ve signed, I don’t think I’m ever going to get off."

Ambitious and humble.

That's the attitude we wonna see. I too imagine him playing along Messi, Mascherano, Xavi, Iniesta someday soon. I hope we stop chasing Neymar and start focusing on the likes of of Araujo and Deulofeu. We missed our chance last summer when we signed Alexis instead of Aguero but now we got our own Aguero.

Exactly dude I think we should stick to our youth though I feel you are over-hyping its a good start, we've got all we need for the new season as far as the attack is concerned and unless we are forced we should try not to spend ridiculous amount of money on anyone just focus and give a chance to the youngsters.

Aguero was better at 17 then Araujo is at 20..he was only bought for the B team, but I can't help but like his confidence.
