Barcelona fear Chelsea are in contact with Ronald Araujo.
Sport says Araujo has had contact with various Premier League clubs, including Chelsea in the Premier League. The London side has made a movement to sign him this summer with a big offer that would see him replace Antonio Rudiger if the German does not sign a new deal.
Araujo started to speak about his renewal in the summer but the club first settled Pedri and Ansu Fati’s deals. In January they offered him on a salary around three millions euros a year for five seasons, a number far lower than agreed with Pedri and Ansu.
Araujo’s people did not accept the proposal, which is also below what Barcelona‘s new signings will earn. The Uruguayan is a key player in the defence and wants to be valued as such.
He is not asking for the numbers of the veterans, even though he has a bigger role, but at least to equal the other recent renewals, which he considers fair.
