Sergi Roberto reacts to talk of rift between Ilkay Gundogan and Ronald Araujo at Barcelona

Barcelona captain Sergi Roberto has tried to play down talk of a possible dressing room rift at the club ahead of El Clasico on Sunday.

There’s been talk of a problem between Ronald Araujo and Ilkay Gundogan after the defender didn’t take too kindly to the German’s post-match comments after defeat to PSG.

Roberto has been asked about the situation and insists all is well:

“Those statements have brought external noise but nothing in the locker room. We are very united. Gündogan explained what happened in the game, but without any intention of pointing fingers at anyone,” he told Movistar.
