Tomas Araujo is a rising star at Benfica, one of the most highly rated young central defenders around at the moment.
He has been drip fed appearances so far, but has become a full time starter in the league this season and looks brilliant. In his side’s narrow win over Estrela de Amadora, he looked a cut above at the back. In the first half alone, his actions on the ball were exceptional. He’s so smooth. The crowd were loving it.
Chelsea have been linked with him in recent days – we can see why. His highlights from that game show a classy player on the rise. How did we end up with Axel Disasi playing like he did today when there are players of Araujo’s class out there?
