This is huge news for Liverpool, who are still anticipating the returns of Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni from long-term injuries. The loan deal is thought to include a buy option worth £47m, but it is not a mandatory clause. Speaking on his arrival on Merseyside, Araujo said: “I’m excited to be here at this massive club with lots of history. I’m excited to meet my teammates, excited to get playing, and I’m very motivated and really up for getting going.”
