Transfer interest in Barcelona defender continues to fade | OneFootball

Interest in the signature of Barcelona star Ronald Araújo is continuing to fade out across the continent.

That’s according to Diario Sport, who have on Tuesday provided an insight into the latest chatter surrounding the Uruguayan’s future.

Just months ago, Araújo was of course considered as very much on the way out at Barcelona.

Amid a January assault on his signature on the part of Italian heavyweights Juventus, Barca were tipped to sell, only for a last-minute change of heart to culminate in the stopper putting pen to paper on fresh terms at the Camp Nou.

Links between Juve and Araújo had since persisted, with the Bianconeri still on the lookout for reinforcements at the back ahead of next season.

If the latest word stemming from the media on Tuesday is anything to go by, however, then those behind the scenes in Turin appear to have cooled their interest considerably.

As per Sport, Araújo is no longer viewed as a viable signing for Igor Tudor’s side.

This comes amid interest in the 26-year-old fading across Europe, after what was a hit-and-miss close to the campaign for Araújo in Barcelona.
