Rui Costa wants €30m from Milan for Benfica regular | OneFootball

Andreas Schjelderup continues to gain prominence on the international market after an excellent run-in to the season for Benfica. The Norwegian winger has increased his value with his recent performances and now has another major suitor, with Milan emerging among the clubs keeping a close eye on his situation.

According to reports coming out of Italy, the Milan club has already included Benfica’s number 21 on its list of potential signings for next season. Even so, the Italians are expected to delay any concrete move until they define their new management structure and appoint the next sporting director.

Benfica, for their part, do not intend to make any potential exit easy and are pointing to figures above €30 million. He is under contract until 2028 and has a release clause set at €100 million. Besides Milan, Barcelona and Como are also continuing to monitor the player.

At 21, the Norway international managed to turn around the situation he was facing at the start of the season. After coming close to leaving for Club Brugge, he ended up convincing José Mourinho and earned an important role, becoming an influential piece in Benfica’s setup.

This season, playing for Benfica, Andreas Schjelderup — valued at €20 million — has already made 42 appearances: 27 in Liga Portugal Betclic, 10 in the Champions League, four in the Portuguese Cup and one in the League Cup. In the 2,464 minutes he has been on the pitch, he has recorded 10 goals and six assists.
