According to the latest report from SER Radio, Uruguay's top management is considering letting Araujo return to Spain early to play against Osasuna, while the Brazilian team is unwilling to let Rafinha leave the team early.

Barcelona's make-up match against Osasuna will be held at 4 a.m. Beijing time on March 28 (next Friday). According to reports, the sports management of the Uruguayan national team does not rule out the possibility of letting Araujo return to the team early and let him play for Barcelona on the 27th.

Uruguay will face Argentina on Saturday morning Beijing time. Araujo is expected to start in this game, so he will not start again against Bolivia, which will be played at an altitude of 4,000 meters.

Bielsa and his coaching staff prefer to "keep the players' physical strength" and believe that players with "excellent footwork" like Araujo are not needed in the match against Bolivia.

Therefore, Uruguay does not rule out letting Araujo return to the team early and let him participate in the La Liga match against Osasuna, because Inigo Martinez and Kubasi are both absent due to injuries.

The situation with Rafinha and the Brazilian national team is different. Brazil's attitude is more determined because their second game is against Argentina and they need the strongest lineup to face it.

The Brazilian side stressed that Rafinha is currently in the national team and the importance of Brazil's match against Argentina is crucial because Brazil has not yet qualified for the 2026 World Cup.

Although Rafinha will play in the early hours of next Wednesday Beijing time, he is willing to fly back to Spain immediately after the game so that he can participate in Barcelona's match against Osasuna in time. In any case, such an arrangement is very tight because Rafinha only has about 40 hours, and this is minus the time difference.
