Juventus, problems for defender required by Thiago Motta

In recent days, Juventus has been forging ties with Ronald Araujo's entourage to convince the Uruguayan to move to Turin. The defender has not closed the door to the Juve hypothesis but Barcelona is resisting

"We want Ronald to continue with us. He is talking with sporting director Deco and we will find a solution. We appreciate him both as a person and professionally. There'è still room to find a satisfactory solution for everyone" said Catalans president Joan Laporta.

Hansi Flick and Barcelona do not want to sell Araujo, and the odds of seeing him in the black and white jersey are drastically declining. 

This is bad news for Thiago Motta, who urgently needs a defender after the injuries to Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal. The need for a new reinforcement for the rearguard è evident.
