Barcelona board urges clubs to sell €60 million this summer

Barcelona needs to raise enough funds in the coming weeks to be able to register Juan Garcia and Nico Williams smoothly. Several players have been put on the roster for sale, including Christensen, whose departure means Araujo will stay for at least another year.

Araujo had a very difficult season. Missed the entire first half of last season due to a serious hamstring injury. After returning to the field, his position in the team is far inferior to Kubasi and Inigo Martinez.

This has led to rumors that Araujo is likely to be sold, but the club's sports director Deco has stopped the possibility. However, if Araujo stays, he can only bring Christensen to the market.

However, according to the report of World Sports, some members of the Barcelona board of directors prefer to sell Araujo, and the termination clause will be reduced to 60 million euros from July 1 to 15.

Araujo himself prefers to stay in Barcelona and hopes to be the starter in the 2025/26 season. The biggest problem now is that if the Uruguayan defender with the largest market value is not sold, the team will inevitably repeat Olmo's registration farce this summer, so it must be prepared for the future and raise the necessary funds in advance.
