On-loan Celtic star Julian Araujo has taken to social media to send a heartwarming message, following news of the end of his season due to injury.

The Mexican right-back made 13 appearances in all competitions during his stint with the Scottish Premiership champions, scoring a memorable goal in added time against Kilmarnock.

Now, after Martin O'Neill effectively signalled the end of his time at Celtic due to a new injury picked up at Bournemouth, the 24-year-old has broken his silence.

On Instagram, the defender posted a lengthy message detailing his disappointment at the news, though also expressing his thanks. In full, the social media post said, "I don’t have all the answers right now, but I trust that everything happens for a reason and that God is guiding every step of this journey.

"I’m truly grateful to Celtic Football Club for welcoming me from day one and making Glasgow feel like home. Wearing this badge and experiencing the passion, history, and energy of this club is something I’ll carry with me forever.

"To my teammates and coaches - thank you for everything we shared this season. I’ll be behind you all the way and have no doubt in what this group can achieve.

"This isn’t the way I imagined this season ending, but it’s part of the story. I’ll take this moment, grow through it, and come back stronger than ever."
