Manchester City lead the race for Barcelona centre-back Ronald Araujo, according to a report.

Manchester City are reportedly at the head of the queue for Barcelona centre-back Ronald Araujo.

The Uruguay international's future is currently the subject of much speculation, with his contract at Camp Nou due to expire in June 2023.

Barcelona are currently struggling to come to an agreement with the defender over an extension, and a number of Premier League clubs are said to be interested in his services.

Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool have all been credited with an interest in Araujo ahead of this summer's transfer window.

However, according to Super Deporte, Man City are leading the race for the 23-year-old, identifying him as the ideal centre-back partner for Ruben Dias.

The report claims that Barcelona are open to selling Araujo this summer if he does not sign a new deal, as the club fear losing him on a free transfer in the summer of 2023.

The South American has been a vital player for Xavi's side during the 2021-22 campaign, making 33 appearances in all competitions, scoring four times in the process. body check tags ::
