Strange to say, Nico Garvey, Pedri and Fati have all renewed their contracts and are on the way to renewal, but Araujo's renewal is still inconclusive, although Barca also said that Araujo's renewal will be successful, but the signal given so far is biased towards Araujo either agree to Barca's contract extension or leave, and now things are very clear. Barca were able to get Messi away, and Araujo didn't have any advantage.
Barca previously provided Araujo with a contract extension, but was rejected by the agent, the specific salary was not made public, in short, the salary could not be very high, from this point of view, Barca's idea of renewing Araujo is not big, unlike the original renewal of Pedri and Fati, which clearly shows that Araujo has a great disadvantage in renewing the contract.
In addition, Barca and Christensen's contract renewal news continues, joining Barca should not be much of a surprise, but the salary negotiations may also be a clear signal to Araujo, with an annual salary of 6 million euros, signed Champions League champions, and Araujo must accept and can not be higher than Christensen's annual salary. After all, Araujo has a certain gap with Christensen in terms of experience and strength, and it is not ruled out that signing Christensen this time is a benchmark for Araujo's contract extension.
The recent contract extension between Araujo and Barca has still not progressed, but a recent news released by the media is still very worrying for Barca fans, because Barca can get Messi to leave, then Araujo wants to renew his contract and must agree to Barca's conditions.
[Daily Sports Reporter's Opinion: Don't Treat Araujo as a Local Player]
The source said that Araujo was 19 years old when he joined Barca B, and strictly speaking, Araujo is not a Player of La Masia, he does not have the genes of La Masia, and he should not treat Araujo as a local player. This already gives a very clear signal that Barca will treat the likes of Araujo and Fati differently.
It is not difficult to imagine why Araujo has not succeeded in renewing his contract so far, and Pedri and Fati's contract has been put on the table early, and the strength is all available materials, but Barca do treat foreign aid and local players, even La Masia players, differently.
Messi is a La Masia player, from the beginning of the arrival at Barca to leave, Barça became Messi's second home, but for the club, it seems that players like Messi are also called foreign aid. According to media reports, Messi has never been a local player, although he has dual citizenship and La Masia's identity, but Spanish players are more favored.
If you have to compare, Barca gave Iniesta a lifetime contract, while Messi was swept out, but the two should be equal to Barca's contribution. Is it just because of the preferential treatment of local players?
Obviously, Messi can leave, Araujo is not a La Masia player at all, and the release of this news also proves that Barca are cold to Araujo's contract extension, in other words, Araujo must agree to barca's proposed contract extension, otherwise there is no big suspense in leaving.
