Joan Laporta confirms Barcelona’s plans for Julian Araujo

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has confirmed the club’s plans for Mexico international Julian Araujo following his move from LA Galaxy.

Araujo has been unable to play for Barcelona so far and may have to wait a little longer to debut for Xavi’s side.

Laporta has been full of praise for the right-back but admits that Barcelona are working on a loan deal for next season.

“Araujo is spoken well of throughout the club. Great right-back who also has a great understanding with his teammates. He came from here from LA Galaxy and here he is,” he told ESPN.
