Liverpool agree season-long loan for Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo
Liverpool have reached a deal to bring Ronald Araujo from Barcelona on loan for the coming season, according to reports.
Liverpool have agreed to sign Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo on a season-long loan, according to reports on Saturday. The move would add cover at centre-back for the Premier League club.
ESPN reported that the Uruguay international is set to join Liverpool for the campaign, while Sky Sports also said the two clubs had reached an agreement. The sources described the transfer as a surprise development.
Araujo has been a regular part of Barcelona's defensive options and would arrive in England on a temporary basis rather than a permanent transfer. No fee or further terms were given in the reports.
The deal would take Araujo from La Liga to the Premier League ahead of the new season, pending completion of the move.
