Having made a name for himself at Boston River, Barcelona acquired the services of Ronald Araujo back in 2018.

And suffice to say, since making the leap to Europe, Araujo has only advanced in rank, with the player cementing himself as a crucial cog in the Blaugrana back-line and even being named the captain in Ter Stegen’s absence.

Turning out to be one of the best bits of business Barcelona have accomplished in recent times, Barça are keeping an eye out for more profiles of his elk.

Dragusin a potential candidate

Now, according to SPORT, Barcelona are looking for the ‘new Araujo’ and Radu Dragusin has entered the club’s radar.

Currently, on loan from Juventus, he plies his trade in defense for Serie A club Genoa and the Romanian national team. The Catalan giants have been trailing him for a while now, believing he could be a smart investment down the line.

Dragusin stands tall at 6 feet 2 inches and is capable of thwarting threatening attacks aerially. He is a right-footed defender with a great sense of anticipation at the back.

However, given his immense potential, several European clubs have also taken note of him and would potentially present some challenges if Barcelona pursues his signing.

The Romanian has a termination clause of €30 million, while his market value stands at an affordable figure of €10 million.

Seeking to emulate the success Barcelona found with Araujo, Draguin is reportedly a player who fits the mold perfectly, but the club will have to be wary of any potential suitors and recover their finances before any advancements can be made.

Barcelona could receive a whopping figure of €1 billion if the ruling on the Super League goes in their favor on 21st December. Such an amount could go a long way in securing the Catalans their desired targets in the market.
