Official | Atlanta sign Brazilian winger Luiz Araújo from Lille

Lille have this afternoon announced the sale of Brazilian winger Luiz Araújo to MLS side Atlanta United, after four seasons at the club.

The 25-year-old had been with Les Dogues since 2017, joining from São Paulo, in a Ligue 1 spell which notably culminated in last season’s title win as Lille pipped PSG by a single point.

Araújo will take up a Designated Player spot in the Atlanta squad, with his move pending the receipt of his visa and International Transfer Certificate.
