A Portuguese club is hoping Sidny Lopes Cabral leaves Benfica | OneFootball

Estrela da Amadora could receive more than €1 million for Sidny Lopes Cabral, as a result of his imminent transfer from Benfica to Trabzonspor. The 23-year-old winger, a Cape Verde international, is very close to moving to Turkish football in a deal expected to be worth around €10 million.

The Reboleira club secured 10% of the player's rights when it sold him in the last winter transfer window, which now translates into a significant financial gain. In this way, the player’s move to Turkey will also directly benefit the Tricolours.

With the player likely to leave, Benfica have already started looking at possible alternatives to strengthen the squad. The signing should be announced as soon as all the necessary formalities are completed. Until then, the transfer depends only on the final agreement with the player.

It should be remembered that Sidny Lopes Cabral arrived at the Luz for a fee close to €6 million after standing out at Estrela da Amadora, where he had a short but productive spell. In service of the Eagles, he recorded one goal and three assists in 12 official matches.

Before returning to Portuguese football, the player — valued at €4 million — had played for Viktoria Köln in the German third division, and while at Reboleira he had already made a strong impression with five goals and three assists in 16 games.
