Liverpool make offer to Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo

Liverpool have made an offer to Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo.

Cataluyna Radio reports the 23-year-old continues to negotiate terms with the Catalan giants with his current deal due to expire in the summer of 2023, but it remains a stand-off at present, despite reports that Barca have offered three times his current salary.

Araujo has received proposals from at least two major Premier League clubs that multiply the money offered by Barca.

The two clubs that have made the most progress in their intention to sign him are said to be Liverpool and Chelsea, although the London club are currently blocked from any operation by the English government due to their owner Roman Abramovich's relationship with Vladimir Putin.

Araujo is among the lowest paid players in Barca's senior squad.

In total, Araujo has made 70 appearances across all competitions for the Spanish side, 33 of which have come during the current campaign.
