Barcelona sporting director Deco has offered an update on Ronald Araujo after the defender was granted a leave of absence by the club following his red card against Chelsea in the Champions League.
Deco is backing Araujo to recover well but says the club have not put on a date on when the defender will play again.
”Araujo is doing well, he’s in his prime. I think he’s going to recover. It’s a specific moment and we’re not setting any date,” he told Què T’hi Jugues.
“It has to be a gradual process, recovering until he reaches his full potential.”
Meanwhile, Araujo was spotted arriving at the Ciutat Esportiva on Wednesday but is yet to resume first-team training with his team-mates.
