Ronald Araujo misses Barcelona training ahead of Villarreal clash with knee injury

Ronald Araujo looks set to miss Sunday’s La Liga clash for Barcelona against Villarreal due to a knee problem.

The defender was absent from the team’s final training session before the game, although there’s been no update on his condition from the club.

Araujo appeared to suffer a knee problem in the win over Espanyol last time out. He was taken off during the match and appeared later on with strapping on his knee.

Hansi Flick does have options if he is without the Uruguayan. Inigo Martinez is back from suspension, while Andreas Chrisensen is fit again and was praised by the boss pre-match.
