Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo has avoided a serious injury following a scare against Atletico Madrid and will be available for Wednesday’s crucial Champions League rematch.
Barcelona received a significant boost as Ronald Araujo was cleared of any major injury following his premature exit against Atletico Madrid.
The Uruguayan defender suffered a hamstring scare but has since been declared fit for Wednesday’s Champions League clash.
Manager Hansi Flick, who is currently managing a thin defensive unit, will welcome the extra option for his tactical selection in this high-stakes fixture.
While Araujo is officially available, Flick may opt for caution regarding his starting lineup. With Jules Kounde and Alejandro Balde returning to the fold, the manager has increased flexibility in his backline.
Araujo remains a vital figure for the squad, and his presence provides essential cover as Barcelona looks to solidify their defense for their upcoming European challenge against the Madrid side.
