Manu Silva said that Tomás Araújo is a "crybaby of the f***ing kind" when he doesn't win. The Benfica central defender revealed that he doesn't take losses well and that his difficult temperament had some implications when he was a child, with his family.
"I really hate losing," said Tomás Araújo on the Cubinho podcast. "My father would forbid me from playing PlayStation because I wanted to hit my brother, as he was always winning," admitted the Benfica defender, being interrupted by a call.
"He's a crybaby of the f***ing kindwho has already returned to training, albeit in a limited capacity - in a moment that left all involved quite excited.
This season, wearing the Benfica jersey, Tomás Araújo – currently valued at 32 million euros – has played eight matches, six in the Liga Portugal Betclic, one in the Champions League, and another in Liga 2, for the B team. In the 308 minutes he played, the defender, who has a contract with the Clube da Luz until June 2029, did not score or assist.
Benfica will return to the field next Friday, October 17th, against Chaves, in a Portuguese Cup match. The match against the team led by Filipe Martins will be played at 7:30 PM, at the Estádio Engenheiro Manuel Branco Teixeira.
