After the disappointment of 2025-26, if Liverpool were to turn it around in 2026-27 it was likely always going to come with at least a few storylines or redemption and rediscovery.
Nobody, though, would have imagined those stories would include a defender signed on loan from Barcelona. That defender is, of course, Ronald Araujo.
The 27-year-old Uruguayan international became an unexpected loan signing when it was made clear to him he didn’t have a future under Hansi Flick with the Catalan giants, and on the back of a few difficult years he jumped at the opportunity for a change of scenery and took a pay cut to join the Reds.
