Sergio Araujo keeps his commitment to UD Las Palmas by returning to his home club, having helped Greek side AEK Athens to a domestic league title. He has re-signed for a five years, keeping him at the club until the 2022/2023 season.
UD Las Palmas turned down interest shown by a host of other clubs who were keen to get their hands on the Argentine star, strengthening the ambitious project they are putting together in Spain’s La Liga 123 second division, with Manolo Jiménez at the helm.
For Araujo “it is a contract extension that reflects the roots I feel for the island, with thousands of fans showing me real affection, plus the birth of my lovely daughter”.
“I am grateful to the president”, the player added, “for the interest he has always shown in me to help me be successful at the club, plus all the kindness shown by my teammates in the dressing room”.
