Manchester United is reportedly planning a summer move to secure the services of 22-year-old Barcelona’s defender as a replacement for Harry Maguire this summer, according to reports.
The 22-year-old center-back has been in stunning form for Barcelona this season, enjoying regular first teams start under Xavi Hernandez, with his performance being known to have attracted interest from different Premier League clubs.
Harry Maguire could be on his way out of Old Trafford in the summer, having failed to meet up to expectations alongside some defensive errors being always committed by the English defender.
However, Barcelona is interested in extending the contract of the Uruguayan center-back, but the player is reported to be wanting an increase in his wages, which could be somehow difficult considering the Blaugrana financial constraints.
Manchester United could face competition from Liverpool to sign the €35m-rated defender, with Jurgen Klopp being known to be a good admirer of the Uruguay international.
Araujo has been able to play 26 games and has been directly involved in 3 goals.
