After several weeks away from FC Barcelona for personal reasons, Ronald Araujo returned to team training this week. The Uruguayan international (25 caps) had gone to Israel to recharge his batteries, having been impacted by criticism of him following his inconsistent performances with Barça. Present at a press conference on the eve of the derby at Espanyol in La Liga, Hansi Flick spoke about the return of his central defender.
« It depends on him. He’s not 100% physically, but he’s doing well. He has to decide how fast he wants to go. For me, it’s clear. What I see and what I feel is that the support from the team is fantastic. He took the time he needed. He’s on the right track “, he indicated. As for the Iberian press, it is explained that Araujo is out of this Saturday’s meeting. On the other hand, his participation in the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia is not completely ruled out. His condition will be assessed in the coming days.a
