The possible exit of Ronald Araujo of Barcelona has caused a significant shock to all the Barça fans who trusted that the defender would end up renewing his contract with the club after the renewal offer that the latter had presented to him. But not. Everything indicates that the player will leave in this market if a significant offer appears. The 35 million that has come from Juventus is absolutely insufficient for the culé Sports Directorate.
An exit that would disrupt the plans of the club that trusted that the Uruguayan stayed at Barcelona for many years since they consider him one of the best center backs there is. But the great anger that exists in the club goes in another direction. The Barça leadership interprets that this was not the time for this type of news to come out about the possible departure of a player.

Focused on the game
The team is playing this Sunday the first title of the season. And, furthermore, it will be against Real Madrid. A Classic of this type, you understand, deserves all the attention and concentration on the part of everyone. And this type of news is misleading. Because people are not doing what they should and this threat of departure causes certain doubts about the suitability of fielding Araujo in the game.
Barça receives unofficially that Araujo wants to leave
Furthermore, there is still time left for the market to close. In the Barcelona club they understand that Araujo should have prevented this information from coming out until the match had passed when there are still three weeks left until the closing of this window. Araujo has not said anything at an official level about his future. Another thing is what is arriving unofficially. And all the inputs In this sense, they pointed out that Araujo really wanted to leave. Juve’s offer confirms this.

Scratch your pocket
However, from wanting to power there is a long stretch. And that section, in this case, is measured in millions. Juventus, Arsenal or any other team that wants to take him will have to offer much more than the 35 million that the Italians put on the table a few hours ago. Barça is willing to sell, but for 70 or 80 million.
