What did Barcelona think? Arauho's termination fee has dropped by one billion?

Yes, Barcelona is so "domineering".

The lineup of the Barcelona dynasty is actually pretty good, but compared with Yamal Rafinia Lewandowski in the frontcourt, Barcelona's defense is more pitiful.

Especially Barcelona captain Araujo, it is a sinkhole in the Champions League and La Liga. What should you do if you let Barcelona do?

According to inside information disclosed by the Spanish authoritative football media Daily Sports, starting from July 1, the termination fee of Barcelona captain Araujo has dropped from 1 billion euros to 65 million euros.

26-year-old Uruguayan superstar Araujo plays as a defender. He has played for many years in Barcelona. He has good physical fitness, but his stability is not good and has many injuries.

2024-2025 season, Araujo made 25 appearances for Barcelona, ​​completing 2 goals and 2 assists.

Originally, Araujo almost left Barcelona to transfer to Serie A Juventus in the winter window. At the last moment, Araujo renewed his contract with Barcelona until 2031.

Judging from the current situation, Araujo is ranked further in Barcelona's central defenders than Brazil, Inigo, Christensen and Garcia.

Araujo has become Barcelona's "fifth central defender" and this is embarrassing.

Inigo Martinez and KuBazi are regular starters for Barcelona. Although Barcelona's high priest Christensen is often injured, he has no tendency to leave the team immediately.

And Christensen, like Eric Garcia, can play both in defenders and midfielders, and his versatility and stability are above Araujo.

If Barcelona really sells people for nothing, Araujo will be the first to be affected.

Faced with this game, Barcelona and Araujo both gave each other a certain choice. Araujo and Barcelona have a termination fee clause.

is what we mentioned at the beginning. Starting from July 1, Araujo's termination fee has been adjusted from 1 billion euros to 65 million euros.

If other teams want to sign Araujo, they can take Araujo away from Barcelona as long as they pay a 65 million termination fee on the premise that Araujo is willing to transfer, and there is no need to obtain Barcelona's consent.

I think Araujo is indeed capable, but his playing characteristics and mentality are not suitable for Barcelona.

For Barcelona, ​​Araujo's 65 million euros is considered inflated, because Araujo often has side effects in Barcelona.

If Araujo went to other teams, it might be better.

Therefore, his next company may be willing to accept a termination fee of 65 million euros.
