Araujo blasts Gundogan: “I have codes and values”
Sponsor, together with Christian Stuani, of the 19th edition of Relatos Solidarios, a book written by journalists for charitable purposes, the proceeds of which this year will go to the Enriqueta Villavecchia Cancer Foundation. Ronald Araujo was eagerly awaited at the old Damm factory, in the heart of the Eixample in Barcelona. The protagonist of an action that “burst”, according to Javi, draw with PSG with his expulsion, The Uruguayan answered questions on the spot. This is a transcript of his statements.
How are you doing, how do you feel 48 hours after everything that happened with PSG?
Like all culés, it’s sad to fly out. We wanted to qualify. We held it in our hands and felt sad. It was a 50-50 game. If the referee didn’t call the shot, nothing would happen. But if he had whistled, he would have had to kick me out. Like a coulee, it hurts.
Did Gundogan’s statement offend you? (“In games like this, you have to be clear that you’re going to get to the ball. If not, give our goalkeeper a chance. “So many minutes and ten, it kills you,” German Araujo said of the red.)
I prefer to keep what I think to myself. I have codes and values that must be respected.
After what happened on Tuesday, how do you feel about the Classic?
We have a rematch. Madrid is our main rival and we need to change our mentality. Let’s do everything on Sunday.
You just talked about codes and values. Did Gundogan not respect these codes?
I have already answered this question.

When is your update?
The truth is that things are going well. The club began negotiations with my agents. We think about these games and what’s left of the season. And when the season is over, they will sit down and talk.
What message would you send to Barcelona fans?
We are very sorry. Obviously, we are all sad: children, families. But this is football, there is always revenge. We’re going to try again next season. I am convinced that this generation will win the Champions League.
Do you feel guilty? Have you noticed people’s affection?
I don’t feel responsible. This conditions the game, especially when your team is down to ten players. But there are many things in the context of the game beyond this removal. I am very grateful to the fans who shouted my name when I was sent off. Kühle has always been very supportive of me.
Do you think Madrid’s wear and tear could help them? What realistic options do you see to change the League?
Madrid has days to rest and everything will be fine. We must fight the League to the end. If we win, we will lower the points. There are mathematical options and we will have to fight.
Do you prefer to continue and update or leave?
There is always talk about the future and proposals. It will be like this every year, but I am happy in Barcelona, my family is happy. When I leave, I am everything and I want Barça to be the same Barça as always. And until the end I will always fight to the death for this shirt.
