@RCCelta

Mexican national team defender Nestor Araujo is the latest member of El Tri to join a La Liga outfit.

Araujo, 26, is off to Celta Vigo on a five-year deal after a half-decade at Santos Laguna in Liga MX.

Left off the Juan Carlos Osorio’s World Cup roster, Araujo joins Miguel Layun (Sevilla), Hector Moreno (Real Sociedad), Andres Guardado (Real Betis), and Oswaldo Alanis (Getafe) in Spain.

Araujo has 27 caps for Mexico with three goals, but oddly enough none of those caps have come against the United States.
