Juventus are reportedly preparing for direct negotiations with Barcelona regarding a potential deal for Ronald Araújo after the Spanish Super Cup. According to the latest updates, Juventus view the Uruguayan defender as a top priority and have already informed Barcelona of their interest last week.
Juventus are exploring options that include a **permanent deal** or a **loan with an obligation to buy**, rather than a straight loan or one with an option to buy. The Italian giants are keen to strengthen their defense with Araújo, who is regarded as one of Barcelona's key players.
This development could gain momentum in the coming days as Juventus work on structuring a feasible agreement. Further updates will depend on Barça’s willingness to negotiate and their valuation of Araújo, a player who has been instrumental for their backline.
