Luis Enrique has pointed out that defense is one of Paris Saint-Germain\u2019s biggest challenges. While the team also lacks a top scorer capable of netting over 30 goals per season following Kylian Mbapp\u00e9\u2019s departure to Real Madrid this summer, and despite not signing a replacement, their defensive struggles are particularly apparent. They have been conceding goals easily, which is impacting their prospects in the Champions League.<\/p>\n
The Spanish coach is actively seeking solutions and has urged Nasser Al-Khelaifi to act decisively in bringing in a star player to address this issue. According to the Spanish newspaper El Nacional, PSG believes the answer lies within Barcelona, specifically targeting one of Hansi Flick\u2019s key players, Ronald Araujo.<\/p>\n
Though Araujo has been sidelined for much of the season due to a serious injury requiring surgery, he is nearing the end of his rehabilitation and is expected to return to action before the year\u2019s end. However, given the strong performances of Pau Coparci and I\u00f1igo Mart\u00ednez, it seems unlikely that Araujo will secure a regular spot in Barcelona\u2019s starting lineup.<\/p>\n
Araujo is widely regarded as one of the world\u2019s top defenders, but his role under Hansi Flick remains uncertain. With his contract running until 2026, there is growing speculation about his future at Barcelona, prompting the club\u2019s president Joan Laporta and director Deco to consider selling him. PSG is closely monitoring his situation, keen on any developments.<\/p>\n
If Luis Enrique succeeds in signing Araujo, he would be eager to once again raid Barcelona, much like he did with Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 over a year ago. In their pursuit of Araujo, PSG is reportedly prepared to offer an unlimited budget, with Al-Khelaifi willing to meet Barcelona\u2019s demands to secure the defender, especially given interest from major clubs like Liverpool, Manchester United, and Bayern Munich.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
