Barcelona have revealed that Araujo has signed a new contract until 2031 with the club, seemingly ruling out a switch. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal will be looking to sign a different defender instead of Araujo after the new deal.

The Serbian striker came close to a move to north London in January 2022 before heading to Turin from Fiorentina for a £66million fee. And Arsenal have reignited their interest this month, reportedly holding talks with the 24-year-old with a view to a January move.
