Official! André Gomes leaves Benfica for a third-division club | OneFootball

Benfica has once again seen another youngster developed at Seixal leave the club. This time, the man in the spotlight is André Gomes, a midfielder of just 20 who has ended his spell with the Eagles and already has his destination set for the 2026/27 season.

The player has been announced as a new signing for Trofense, of Liga 3. After several years developing in Benfica’s academy teams and intermediate ranks, the midfielder is now looking to take an important step in his career and gain experience.

André Gomes joined the Eagles in 2020 from Porto and put together a consistent path through the youth ranks. Over the last few seasons, he particularly stood out in the Liga Revelação.

Last season, the Portugal youth international made 24 appearances in the competition, registering four goals and two assists for Benfica’s Under-23 side. Before that, he had already shown promising signs in the youth ranks, putting up interesting numbers and even representing the Eagles’ B team on a few occasions.

. Now, he will have the opportunity to show all his potential at Trofense and prove that backing a new path can be decisive for the development of his career, just as Beni Souza did.
