Ronald Araujo expected to miss Barcelona’s clash with Napoli

Ronald Araujo is expected to miss Barcelona’s Champions League with Napoli after suffering a sprained ankle against Sabadell on Sunday.

The club confirmed the injury in a statement late on Monday:

“Tests carried out on the player Ronaldo Araujo have confirmed that the player has a sprained right ankle. The player is not available for selection and his recovery will dictate his return.”

Araujo’s injury is expected to rule him out of action for three weeks, meaning he is out of the last-16 second leg against Napoli on August 8, according to AS.
