The Uruguay international has mostly been a key player for Barca in recent years, but there are also other options in defence and it seems that led to some doubt about his situation.
Arsenal were then linked with Araujo in a recent report from Marca, but it now seems Romano is happy to rubber-stamp reports from elsewhere about the player looking set to stay put at the Nou Camp.
See below for details as Romano clarifies the latest on Araujo’s situation…
Romano mentions Juventus also being interested in Araujo, but Arsenal don’t get a mention, so it remains to be seen how concrete those links actually were.
It’s quite common to see various names thrown around even if the interest isn’t that strong, but either way, the Gunners surely won’t be getting Araujo in through the door any time soon.
Arsenal making a move for Araujo
never really made much sense anyway, in truth, as it’s hard to see where the 25-year-old would have fit in in Mikel Arteta’s side.
AFC already have the excellent pairing of William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes, and they can also call upon others like Ben White, Jurrien Timber, Riccardo Calafiori and Jakub Kiwior to play there if needed.
