Ronald Araujo

Finally back with FC Barcelona after a long break, Ronald Araujo fired up the Catalan squad in the 2026 Spanish Super Cup final against Real Madrid.

The Catalan outlet reported that his words left a profound impression on the team.

After the final, Pedri confirmed the impact of Araujo’s speech on the locker room’s spirits: “Ronald, both on and off the pitch, gives us so much. His speech before we stepped onto the field fired us up and we were ready to fight.”
