Ronald Araujo has long been coveted by Manchester United, and according to recent sources, the club will outbid Bayern to entice the South American.
Florian Plettenberg stated during the January transfer window that the Red Devils want to entice the Uruguayan international away from Barcelona.

Sport claims that the 20-time English champions first expressed interest in Araujo two years ago and are now pressing to complete his acquisition.
According to the Catalan publication, Bayern would be prepared to shell out over £67 million (or 80 million euros) to sign the La Liga player to an Allianz contract.
However, Man Utd is willing to offer even more than £67 million to beat the Bavarians to Araujo’s contract.
One of the top defenders in the Spanish League at age 25, Xavi wants to keep him at the Nou Camp.
Sport claims that the Blaugrana must raise money, thus they will make the greatest bids for the former Rentistas centre half.
Man Utd are getting set to bid to get Ronald Araujo into the starting lineup as their “multimillion dollar investment.”
The Old Trafford team gave up their 51st goal of the Premier League season yesterday, and they will not be able to advance the next year if they don’t strengthen their defence.
Do you think Man Utd should pay more than £67 million to eventually sign Araujo?
