It is no secret that FC Barcelona are necessitated to complete a number of exit operations in order to make amends to their financial situation, with the hierarchy working tirelessly behind the scenes.
Julian Araujo is among the names listed for a departure, but his case is different from some of the other fringe assets. Barcelona hope to secure a loan deal for the player and instead allow him to develop further in the top flight.
As per Marca, the likelihood of Julian Araujo’s next destination being UD Las Palmas has risen drastically. After already loaning out Pablo Torre to Girona with the intention of enhancing his evolution in midfield, Julina Araujo is said to follow a similar route.
In Mexico, many even claim that it is only a matter of time before the player is seen officially representing Garcia Pimienta’s men. Previously, all that was missing was the player’s consent and an agreement between the clubs, which is said to have been found.
Araujo is aware that the growing competition in the squad will make it difficult to grab play time regularly, which is detrimental for any developing youngster. The Catalan club, however, values his potential and has opted for a loan deal rather than an outright sale.
Las Palmas has been regarded as a great side for prospects to grow and master their craft. Under the tutelage of Pimienta, who coached Barcelona’s youth ranks, Araujo will be sure to learn elements of positional play and hone his skills.
The Mexican has chosen Las Palmas over other clubs. If nothing goes wrong in the coming days, the signing will materialize in Marbella, where Las Palmas has prepared accommodations until July 29.
