Barcelona defender Ronald Arujo has denied rumours that he could join Bayern Munich, saying he is focused on the club and happy at the Camp Nou. Bayern Munich are reportedly eyeing Alucho as the number one target in the January transfer window and are willing to pay more than €70 million to bring in the Uruguay international. However, Arujo said he is committed to Barcelona and will always give his all to play for the team.
Barcelona, who are facing financial difficulties, have announced that they will not ** Arucho this season, but Bayern may wait until the summer transfer window if an agreement cannot be reached in the winter transfer window. The 24-year-old has made 18 appearances for Barcelona this season and signed a new contract in April 2022, with his current contract running until the summer of 2026. He highlighted his focus on the upcoming Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Osasuna and stressed the importance of winning the game for the team.
Barcelona could welcome the return of midfielder Pedri in the semi-finals, which will give them some boost. A victory will see them advance to the final, where they will face either Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid. The possibility of Joe Cancelo playing is still uncertain due to a recent knee injury, but he could have a chance to play if Barcelona reach the final.
