The Reds were hoping to snap up the Uruguay international last summer to pair him up with Virgil van Dijk in their backline.<\/p>\n<p>However, according to Spanish newspaper SPORT, Araujo rejected big-money approaches from Liverpool and Chelsea this year and he is now expected to be rewarded with a new contract for his loyalty. The report goes on to claim that Barca view him as a future club captain.<\/p>\n<p>He is currently the Catalonian&#8217;s third-choice skipper behind Sergi Roberto and Marc Andre Ter-Stegen. Roberto originally held the same position as Araujo for two seasons before the departures of club legends Gerard Pique and Sergio Busquets &#8211; and the 24-year-old is expected to move through the ranks at a similar rate.<\/p>\n<p>Araujo signed a contract extension with Barcelona last summer until 2026 but is expected to put pen to paper on a new deal with improved terms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Barcelona-Ronald-Araujo-5054621.jpg?r=1699390050918\"><\/p>\n<p>Araujo is on similar money to when he first joined the club in 2018 due to the Spanish giant&#8217;s ongoing Financial Fair Play issues. He was offered much higher wages to go elsewhere but it is understood that he has heart set on staying at Camp Nou.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to ESPN after signing a new deal with Barca in April, Araujo insisted that his first choice was always to stay at Barca. &#8220;I am really happy and I am convinced that staying is the right decision because there are good years ahead for the club,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Sabitzer shares what Ten Hag is like in dressing room and behind the scenes[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Guardiola reacts to Arsenal boss Arteta&#8217;s ref fury as he admits to &#8216;confusion'[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Tottenham &#8216;plotting&#8217; January raid to reunite Maddison with ex-team-mate Ndidi[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Liverpool-Ronald-Araujo-Virgil-van-Dijk-5054618.jpg?r=1699390050986\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was always certain I wanted to stay.

We all gave a little bit to reach an agreement, which is what we all wanted. [The Premier League interest] didn&#8217;t distract me at all. I was convinced what I wanted. It&#8217;s true money is a factor, but for me it&#8217;s not the most important thing.
