Liverpool impressed by Ronald Araujo as €55m clause comes under consideration

Liverpool are impressed by Ronald Araujo’s performances since the defender joined the club on loan from Barcelona, with the Reds seriously considering whether to activate his €55m buyout clause.

The report comes from The Touchline, which cites journalist Luis Rojo as its source.

The 27-year-old Uruguay international has made 11 appearances for Andoni Iraola’s team this season, scoring two goals and providing one assist.

Liverpool’s interest could lead to a permanent move for Araujo, whose current market value is estimated at €25m by Transfermarkt.

The defender remains under contract with Barcelona until 2031.
