Frenkie de Jong and Ronald Araujo are in danger of being put on the transfer list if they don't renew their contracts.
Barcelona has issued them an ultimatum according to the source below. They both have a contract to expire by the summer of 2026. As far as I know de Jong makes 19m euros a year which goes up to 25m with bonuses. He hasn't played for so much time since he recovered as well. I wonder how he will end up here. Araujo has also been injured for a long time and newly returned. Let's see what he thinks about his future.
About Araujo....
I've been reading that Manchester City are planning a January/2025 transfer window to solve defensive problems that have negatively marked the start of the season, and Ronald Araujo is seen as a key player for Pep Guardiola's squad.
In the 16 Premier League rounds, City have conceded 23 goals, a number significantly higher than last season. In the Champions League, the team has also faced difficulties, with new goals conceded in six matches, which reinforces the need for reinforcements in the defensive sector.
So, the European press is saying that Manchester City is willing to invest between 70 and 80 million euros to secure Araujo's signing, a figure close to what Bayern Munich previously offered and rejected.
On the other hand, Ronald is still seen by Barcelona as a key player for the team and Hansi Flick considers his departure to be unfeasible, but... Barcelona's financial needs could be a decisive factor in possible negotiations.
