The contract for Araujo is defined with a final date in June 2026 for close to four million euros.
Araujo, 21 years old and born in California, made his debut with the Mexican National Team in 2021. In this participation he started in that World Cup Qualifying match against the United States, at the Azteca Stadium; However, in the final list made by Tata Martino, he was not called up to wear the green in Qatar 2022.
The vision of being part of the so-called “Barcelona B” is in order to have greater access for the footballer to be taken as part of the first team, FC Barcelona currently led by Xavi Hernández.
Julián Araujo has experienced a whole novel, since presumably a bug in the FIFA system caused this transaction to be carried out just 18 seconds after the closing of the transfer period, a situation that had to be resolved by the CAS (Court of Arbitration for Sport, for its acronym in English) and give the pass to the LA Galaxy player to live his experience in Spain.
