Maxi Araújo, born on 15 February 2000 (age 26), is a Uruguay international who plays primarily on the left wing for Sporting CP. His current market value is around £14.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
His most productive league season came at Toluca in 2022-23, when he scored six goals in 17 appearances. That spell gave him a clearer attacking profile before his move into European football with Sporting CP.
