August 02, (THEWILL) – Barcelona have officially announced the completion of a loan deal for right-back Julian Araujo, who will be plying his trade with UD Las Palmas in the upcoming football campaign.
The loan agreement between the two clubs is set to run until 30 June 2024. Araujo, a Mexican international, had previously joined Barça Atlètic during the winter transfer window from L.A. Galaxy, where he had an impressive record of 109 appearances over four seasons, contributing with two goals and 14 assists.
Having trained with the Barcelona first team during the latter part of the 2022/23 season, Araujo is now set to embark on a new chapter in his career in Gran Canaria. Former Barcelona player Munir will be joining Araujo after sealing a move to Las Palmas. The Moroccan forward made the decision to join the club after being released by Getafe. Munir’s experience and attacking prowess could prove to be valuable assets for Las Palmas, as they aim to make their mark in the highly competitive La Liga.
The loan move to Las Palmas offers Julian Araujo an exciting opportunity to further hone his talents and leave a lasting impression in one of Europe’s top football leagues. With his commendable track record at L.A. Galaxy and recent training with Barcelona’s first team, Araujo’s potential contribution to Las Palmas’ defense and attacking play cannot be underestimated. Meanwhile, Munir’s arrival adds an extra layer of depth and quality to the squad, enhancing their chances of achieving success in the competitive Spanish top-flight.
With Araujo and Munir both poised to wear the yellow and blue jersey, Las Palmas will undoubtedly be looking to capitalise on their skills and experience to make a significant impact in the upcoming season.
