Milan is reportedly interested in Martín, appreciating his ability to play both center-back and left-back. Araújo has reportedly attracted interest from Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Inter, with the reigning English champions said to be ready to offer 35 million euros for the center-back. According to the reports, neither Araújo nor Martín want to leave Barcelona this summer, with Araújo determined to work his way back into the starting lineup and Martín motivated by the playing time he has received this season.

However, according to the reports, Barcelona may actively work to sell Martín or Araújo this summer for economic reasons, as the club reportedly needs to raise money to buy a new center-back and a new striker and to retain Marcus Rashford.

He is not satisfied with sitting on the bench but respects his teammates and has confidence in his abilities.
