A price tag FC Barcelona is willing to listen for Araujo is a transfer fee of over $100 million. Araujo spoke with Mundo Deportivo and when he was asked about his future with FC Barcelona, the Uruguayan defender said, “Will I stay at Barcelona? I’m very well, I’m calm. I have a contract until 2026. My representatives will meet the club, but right now, I’m focused on the national team.”
