Benfica set João Rego plan for 2026/27

Benfica intend for João Rego to spend 2026/27 away from Seixal on loan with a top-flight club, according to Glorioso 1904.

The idea is to loan him to a first division side to aid his development in a more competitive setting with more playing time. The club want him to gain top-level experience so he is better prepared for José Mourinho’s squad.
