Joan Laporta Sends Message of Support for Araujo
Joan Laporta has urged full backing for Ronald Araujo, highlighting the defender’s emotional and sensitive nature. The Barcelona president revealed that Araujo personally expressed his gratitude and assured him he will return with renewed motivation. Laporta emphasized that situations like this require care and should be handled by the appropriate professionals.
Laporta also stressed Araujo’s importance to the team, noting that Barça have no other player with his unique qualities. He described the defender as “unlucky,” explaining that Araujo entered the challenge with excessive intensity and should never have been shown the first yellow card — a mistake that has clearly taken a toll on him.
According to Laporta, both Hansi Flick and Deco are actively addressing the matter and supporting the player through this difficult moment.
