Jose Mourinho remains one of the possible candidates to become the new coach. If that happens, Ronald Araujo has become a key element in Barcelona's defense, but his continuity at the club is far from assured. Although the team rejected an important offer from Bayern Munich in the winter market, the possibility of a summer exit is still on the table.

The price of the Uruguayan is 70 million. Bayern Munich showed a strong interest in Araujo during the winter market, submitting an attractive offer for the center-back. However, Barcelona opted to retain the player at the time. But with the summer transfer window approaching, the situation could change.
The Barcelona board faces a dilemma regarding Araujo's future. On the one hand, they recognize the player's importance to the team and his potential for the future. On the other hand, they are also aware that a sale could bring the club a significant sum of money, especially considering the current financial constraints.
Renewal and economic competition
In addition, Barcelona knows that it will not be able to match the salary offers that Araujo could receive from other clubs in the event of a renewal. This adds pressure on the board, which must make a decision on whether to keep the player or take advantage of a possible lucrative offer in the summer market.
