Liverpool are on the brink of signing Ronald Araujo from Barcelona. We've had a look at his real value - and why the Reds want him.
Liverpool will imminently announce the signing of Ronald Araujo from Barcelona on a one-year loan deal with an option to buy. That's according to Fabrizio Romano, who was among those breaking the news on Friday night.
The Reds will be able to pay €55m to make it all permanent next July, while they'll also cover his wages in full for the duration of the loan.
On the face of it, you can see why Liverpool made this move. They needed a centre-back in his prime years - someone who can bridge the gap between Virgil van Dijk (35), Jeremy Jacquet (21) and Giovanni Leoni (19) but perhaps offer a bit more reliability than Joe Gomez.
On top of that, Araujo can play right-back, too, covering the injured Conor Bradley. So the logic here does make sense.
