Real Madrid consider upsetting Barcelona with move for Man Utd target Araujo
Real Madrid chiefs haven't ruled out moving for Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo.
As new contract talks with Barca stall, Araujo's agents have been fielding interest from rivals, including Manchester United.
Ok Diario says Araujo has also been offered to Real, which initially rejected the approach. Real president Florentino Perez's decision to agree a 'non-aggression' pact with Barca saw Araujo's availability dismissed.
However, with talks continuing to drag on, Real are now rethinking their position and watching developments closely.
For the moment, the Uruguay defender remains among the lowest paid at Barca, earning less than €1m-a-season.
