"They are rumours that always come out. Last summer there was talk of United, but I'm focused here."

Araujo also spoke of what Xavi asks from him: "Since Xavi arrived I learned a lot on the offensive plot. Due to my character there are parties in which I do more than what I am asked to do in attack."
