Potential Historic Moment: Ronald Araujo in Line for Barca Captaincy Amidst Key Absences
As Barcelona faces the possibility of missing both Sergi Roberto and Marc-Andre ter Stegen in upcoming matches, Ronald Araujo is set to step into the captain’s role, marking a potentially historic moment for the Uruguayan defender. Araujo, serving as the team’s third-choice captain this season, has yet to don the captain’s armband.
With Ter Stegen nursing an injury sustained on international duty and Roberto still in the recovery phase from his setback, the responsibility of captaincy may fall to Araujo in their absence. The extent of Ter Stegen’s injury remains uncertain, adding an element of suspense to the team’s upcoming fixtures.
Barcelona’s next match, scheduled away against Rayo Vallecano on November 25, could see Araujo leading the team onto the field in a significant role as captain, showcasing the trust placed in the talented Uruguayan defender.
