La Liga giants Barcelona have on Wednesday been afforded some fresh, and altogether positive news on the personnel front.
This comes amid confirmation that a verbal agreement has been reached, over the renewal of defender Ronald Araújo’s contract.
The name of Uruguayan international Araújo has of course dominated the headlines in Catalunya’s capital over the course of the day to date.
This comes after word was forthcoming that, out of the blue, the 25-year-old had gone back on his decision to depart, in favour of staying put with Hansi Flick’s squad.
And such news has since been swiftly followed by yet more of a positive nature for all of a Blaugrana persuasion.
As per a report from the reliable Fabrizio Romano, ahead of the expiration of his current terms in the summer of 2026:
‘Ronald Araújo has agreed in principle on new contract at Barcelona. Positive talks took place between the player and Barça director Deco, fully involved in the process.’
