2 stars targeted to replace Araujo at Barça
FC Barcelona is already anticipating the summer market to strengthen its central defense, in particular due to the uncertainties surrounding Ronald Araujo and the expiry of Andreas Christensen’s contract in 2026. According to Sports Worldthe Blaugrana are targeting Josko Gvardiol and Alessandro Bastoni, two profiles capable of providing solidity and projection over several seasons. These players, under contract until 2028, are considered suitable by their age, their experience and their ability to integrate into an ambitious club like Barça. The club is also following other options like Schlotterbeck or Pau Torres, as well as players at the end of their contract (Guéhi, Konaté), but Gvardiol and Bastoni remain priorities.
