Liverpool are impressed by Ronald Araujo’s performances since the defender joined the club on loan from Barcelona, with the Reds seriously considering whether to activate his €55m buyout clause.
The report comes from The Touchline, which cites journalist Luis Rojo as its source.
The 27-year-old Uruguay international has made 11 appearances for Andoni Iraola’s team this season, scoring two goals and providing one assist.
Liverpool’s interest could lead to a permanent move for Araujo, whose current market value is estimated at €25m by Transfermarkt.
The defender remains under contract with Barcelona until 2031.
