Barcelona are still interested in renewing Araujo, but believe he should respond positively(YAJING)
According to World Sport, Barcelona submitted a contract extension proposal to Araujo's agent several months ago, but has so far received no response.
However, Barca still want to renew Araujo's contract, believing that he is an important player in the team's future plans. However, the club also believes that it is now up to the players to take the initiative in responding to the proposal.
Club president Joan Laporta mentioned in an interview with World Sport that there had been a "miscommunication" within Araujo's team and that the player's representatives did not appear to have communicated the club's intention to renew in detail.
This problem, coupled with poor performances last season, especially Araujo's poor performance against Paris Saint-Germain, has raised doubts about his future at Barca.
