Juventus Bidik Ronald Araujo as the main target in the summer transfer market

Gilabola.com – Juventus make the Barcelona captain, Ronald Araujo, as their main transfer priority in the transfer market this summer, and is ready to offer 25 million euros to 30 million euros.

Revealed SportJuventus are trying to increase their efforts to get Araujo ahead of the rolling of the 2025 2026 season.

The interest of the Italian soccer club to Araujo is actually not something new. However, they believe this time the condition will benefit their agreement.

Juventus coach, Igor Tudor, is trying hard to bring Araujo to the football club based in Turin, and make the Uruguay international defender the main priority in the transfer market.

It’s been a long time interested in Araujo

Juve had previously shown their serious interest in Araujo during the winter transfer window. Moreover, at that time, Araujo was also said to be considering leaving Catalan.

However, the 26 -year -old tall defender finally renewed his contract with Barcelona, ​​and extended his stay until 2031 with a surprising release clause, which was 1 billion euros.

Interestingly, one thing to note is, this release clause will drop significantly to only 70 million euros in the first 10 days of July 2025.

Bianconeri hopes to take advantage of the transfer market this time, and is ready to submit an offer of around 25 million euros to 30 million euros – far below the temporary clause, although it remains a considerable cost for a player whose role is starting to decrease at his current club.

Araujo is no longer untouched in Barcelona

Araujo’s status in the Barcelona squad today has indeed changed. Previously, he was a core player, but now behind a talented young player, Pau Cubarsi, and an experienced player, IniGo Martinez, in the order of the game at Hansi Flick’s club.

The development also triggered questions about his future at Camp Nou, especially after the club officials openly claimed to be ready to release several defenders.

Barcelona Sports Director, Deco, has confirmed that they are the excess number of players who operate as central defenders.

While Andreas Christensen will only be allowed to go as a free agent, selling Araujo can bring a large amount of money, and help ease the financial difficulties of the club that is still ongoing today.

When the transfer market officially opened on July 1, 2025, the situation is expected to change quickly. The Old Lady was reportedly waiting for the right time, and the Blaugrana was expected to find it difficult to refuse, if there was a good offer proposed by the enthusiast club.
