The club’s plans for Ronald Araujo, who is expected to make a speedy recovery from injury, have been revealed by Barcelona manager Hansi Flick.

Despite not playing at all this season, Araujo is on the verge of making a return and will play before the year ends.

Although Araujo will not play against Real Betis on Saturday, he could participate against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League or Leganes in La Liga the following week.

“Tomorrow, he won’t be prepared. Our goal is for him to be prepared for Leganés, but he might play against Dortmund,” he told reporters.

Since the squad is performing well, it is difficult to incorporate him in every game. I’m thrilled that we concentrated on tomorrow throughout today’s training session.

In order to keep up their momentum in both La Liga and the European competitions, Barcelona will be hoping that his comeback fortifies their defense. The team’s defensive structure will be more stable with Araujo back, thus fans are excitedly awaiting his return.
