The British gave $ 45 million, but Benfica resists and Araujo remains

The 20-year-old striker, who is protected under a €60m buyout clause, is Rui Costa’s strong bet for the new season and he is off the market.

The 20-year-old striker and UEFA Youth League winner Henrique Araujo is considered by officials, led by President Rui Costa, to be a great bet for the new season. This justifies, as found by O JOGO, the refusal given to approaches by English clubs, which necessitated the formalization of proposals that would, with the listed targets, amount to 45 million euros.

With a contract valid until 2024 and built with a release clause we have found €60m, Henrique Araújo is in Luz as a non-negotiable player. The player who finished the season, between the main team, B, under 19 and under 21, with a total of 23 goals in 42 matches, is out of the market, according to Benfica’s perspective, that is, only. By activating the clause, the company can move forward.

As set at Barcelona and Real Madrid, Henrique Araújo is preparing to discuss a place in the eleven with Yaremchuk, Musa, Rodrigo Pinho and Gonçalo Ramos. Darwin has already left, moved to Liverpool, and Seferovic should leave Luz as well.
