Barcelona worried about Ronald Araujo ahead of World Cup 2022 - report

Ronald Araujo has been spotted in training with Uruguay this week as he aims to make a comeback in time for the 2022 World Cup.

The defender has not played since undergoing surgery in September and was initially ruled out for three months.

Barcelona are reportedly a little concerned about Araujo’s swift comeback and feel he may be rushing his recovery in order to feature in Qatar, according to AS.

The report claims Barca and Uruguay agreed that Araujo would not play in the group stages and even reached a “gentleman’s agreement” on the defender’s participation.
