FIFA to decide Julian Araujo's future

Los Angeles Galaxy right-back Julian Araujo came within a whisker of becoming a new Barcelona player. "We didn't get there in time with Jualin Araujo due to a technical error. It was 18 seconds," Barca sporting director Mateu Alemany said.
"I don't know what FIFA are going to do. What you musn't forget is that he was a youth player," he added. As a result, FIFA will make a decision on Araujo's new destination. According to 'Mundo Deportivo', the Spanish side could have an answer on Thursday.
The board expect to find out later in the day whether they will finally be able to sign the defender for their academy. Xavi's side explained everything that happened and argued that the registration was late by less than a minute.
Julian Araujo will be able to join Barca Atletic when FIFA gives the go-ahead for the transfer. Moreover, Xavi could count on him when he needs reinforcements on the right flank.
