Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 60.9, Araújo carries the 14th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Primeira Liga (top 26%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~65), then tapers with age. At 24, Araújo sits on 64.6, at or near its peak. The blue line is Araújo's projected Rating — 60.9 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
