Barcelona would actually like to extend Araujo's contract, which runs until 2026, but a decisive sending off like against PSG could lead to a rethink. Also because Barca urgently needs income in order to be able to bring in new players in the summer.
According to various Spanish media reports, the price tag for the 25-year-old is now "only" 60 to 70 million euros - although Bayern are even prepared to put up to 100 million on the table. A sum that the heavily indebted club could hardly refuse.
As Spanish Sport reports, Araujo's personality is now dividing the club. Some of the club management definitely want to keep the defender, others see him as an important source of income for the upheaval in the squad.
It remains to be seen whether or not Bayern Munich's interest in Araújo was driven by outgoing coach Thomas Tuchel or was an organizational initiative. If Tuchel was the driver, the Bavarians might no longer be in the running for the defender.
