Araujo hopeful of making swift Barcelona return

Ronald Araujo is reportedly optimistic he can make a swift return from injury and is even hopeful he could feature against Real Sociedad on Wednesday in the Spanish Super Cup if needed.

The Uruguayan missed Saturday’s win over Granada after picking up a hamstring strain in the warm-up and was replaced by Samuel Umtiti.

Barcelona confirmed the injury on Sunday but didn’t say how long they expect the defender to be sidelined.

MEDICAL UPDATE | Tests carried out this morning have shown that @RonaldAraujo939 has a right hamstring strain.
