Vinícius Vasconcelos Araújo (born 22 February 1993) is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Spanish club SD Huesca on loan from Valencia CF as a striker.
Born in João Monlevade, Araújo joined local Cruzeiro's academy in 2007, aged 14. He made his Série A on 6 July 2013, starting in a 1–1 away draw against Portuguesa.
Eight days later, Araújo scored his first professional goals, in a 3–0 home win over Náutico. He finished the campaign with 21 appearances and eight goals (16 in the league, 1118 minutes overall), as the Raposa was crowned champions.
On 31 January 2014 La Liga side Valencia CF bought a half of Vinícius Araújo's rights, for a €3.5 million. His debut in La Liga came on 2 March 2014, as he replaced Portu in the 70th minute of a 0–1 away loss to Rayo Vallecano.
On 25 August 2014, Araújo was loaned to Belgian Pro League side Standard Liège, in a season-long deal. Sparingly used, he was loaned back to his first club Cruzeiro on 25 June 2015.
After being rarely used in Cruzeiro, Araújo joined Sport also in a temporary deal. Returning to the Che in January 2017, he scored in a Copa del Rey 2–1 loss against Celta de Vigo on the 12th before being loaned out to SD Huesca six days later.
