Quote: “For me, he’s a very good player. He is one of the best defenders in the world. I think everyone should build their own career, but we may have similarities in terms of playing style,” said Puyol.

Reminder: Ronald Araujo has been sidelined until December due to a hamstring injury he sustained while playing for the Uruguay national team during the Copa América. This season, the Uruguayan has yet to play for Barcelona.
