FC Barcelona has agreed to the sale of its right-back Julian Araujo. SPORT Reporter Toni Juanmarti, who cited anonymous sources when reporting on the development on social media.

Just 24 hours ago on Friday, Barca announced that it had completed the purchase of its former academy talent Dani Olmo from RB Leipzig on a six-year contract until mid-2030.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the agreement between the Catalans and the Germans provides for 2024 Euro winner Olmo to receive $60 million (€55 million) in fixed deposits, which the latter is entitled to, plus a further $7.6 million (€7 million) that are also possible in the form of additional payments.

Saturday, however, seemed to have been a day of sales as Jean-Clair Todibo’s move to West Ham was made official.

The Frenchman’s last permanent club, Nice, will of course pocket the lion’s share of the $43.7 million (€40 million) that the Premier League club will have to shell out after the defender completes a season on loan.

However, since Barca included a 20% sell-on clause when they sold Todibo to Nice in 2021, Barca should later receive a very welcome $8.7 million (€8 million) from the sale.

However, it seems there is more money to be made immediately, with Juanmarti tweeting that Barca have reached an agreement with Bournemouth for California-born Mexican international Julian Araujo.

The Mexican is no longer training with the first team on the instructions of Hansi Flick, Juanmarti adds, as a $10.9 million (€10 million) deal was concluded in recent days.

Araujo was bought from LA Galaxy to Barca in January 2023, but did not play in the current season. Xavi Hernandez’s team finished the season as La Liga winners.

The following season he moved to Las Palmas on loan, but it was believed that he could finally become a first-team player under Xavi’s successor Flick.

Ultimately, however, Araujo failed to impress during the recent pre-season friendly tour of the USA, as players such as Alex Valle took the lead at right-back, a position that Jules Kounde can also play.
