An exclusive report from Juve FC He explains that Araujo has agreed a contract with Juventus, as they are trying to push forward with a deal. La Vecchia Signora also needs to agree an agreement with Barcelona for Araujowith a loan deal offered at the end of the season followed by an obligation to buy. With alternative targets Antonio Silva of Benfica, and David Hancko of Feyenoord looking unlikely for the winter transfer window, Juventus redoubled efforts to secure Araujo's signature.

The Blaugrana have told Araujo that if he cannot agree to a new contract before the summer, they will try to sell him, and with no progress, this appears to be a step forward in the process. Juventus' biggest obstacle may not be the price, but rather the Premier League: Araujo has expressed a preference for English football, with Arsenal and Manchester United supposedly inquiring about his availability.
