Each Sport: Since Barcelona did not sign Jonathan Ta, Frick has made it clear that he will not sell Araujo

The Daily Sports reported that Frick has made it clear that Barcelona will not sell Araujo.

Frick firmly ended all transfer rumors about Araujo at yesterday's press conference. The Barcelona coach made it clear that the Uruguayan central defender will continue to stay in Barcelona and is a core player he attaches great importance to.

Araujo set up a special clause 15 days before the summer transfer window when he renewed his contract in January this year, that is, from July 1 to 15, his transfer price became extremely affordable, only 65 million euros. Although he received a lot of offers and temptations, the players finally chose to ignore it, which was mainly due to the signal that Frick and Barcelona's sports department conveyed to him.

At the pre-match press conference between Seoul and Seoul FC, Frick was extremely determined: "Arauho? Why leave? Although there are many rumors about him and other players, I have no news. We have a strong team, with double insurance in each position, and some positions even have three players. It is indeed not easy to manage, but I am very satisfied."

An important reason why Frick prioritized retaining Arauho is that he failed to successfully introduce Jonathan Tower. The Leverkusen central defender eventually joined Bayern as a free agent. Although Barcelona has been interested in him for months and the player himself agreed to join, just like Louis Dias's transfer later, Bayern offered richer conditions, which led to Jonatan Tat eventually choosing Bayern.

Therefore, keeping Araujo became Flick's top priority. The physical fitness, confrontation and speed of pursuit provided by the Uruguayans perfectly complements the technical characteristics of Inigor Martinez and KuBazi. For Frick, it is crucial to have different types of defensive cores based on different opponents and game situations. Because of this, Araujo became a serious non-sale product in Frick, Deco and the sports sector.

This is also the reason why Frick tried his best to defend Araujo in public, and Deco has also made every effort to defend Araujo in many interviews in recent weeks. Of course, Araujo still needs to improve and reduce mistakes.

At the press conference, Frick also talked about other topics. Speaking of young player Dros who performed well in the preseason, Frick said: "He trained with us at the end of last season, so he brought him this time. Dros is a talented player, which once again proves that Lamacia's job is excellent. Not only goals, but his way of controlling the ball is also very special. Of course, he still needs to improve. After all, the competition in the midfield position is fierce, not only for him, but also for other players."

Regarding Rashford's joining, Fris Rick said: "Rashford is an excellent player. I have been following him since his Manchester United debut. He is talented and looks forward to his performance in the team this season."

"It will be a difficult season, but we are full of confidence. We think the team has improved, but the season is long. Our goal is always to win the championship, just like last season. We will continue to strive to win every game as always."
