Anatoliy Trubin looks downcast before Benfica draw with Académico de Viseu | OneFootball

Anatoliy Trubin cut a dejected figure before Benfica’s match against Académico de Viseu, appearing withdrawn during the pitch inspection at Estádio da Luz.

According to Glorioso 1904, the 25-year-old arrived with a stern expression and kept apart from team-mates, and he feels underappreciated at the club and wants to leave this summer.

He again started on the bench, repeating the scenario seen against Hearts in the Europa League. Samuel Soares was selected in goal, while the wearer of the number one shirt watched on.

The moment comes at a delicate time for the goalkeeper, who had recently posted a contentious message on social media. Losing his starting status could weigh on any decision over his future.

The scene before the draw with Académico de Viseu adds to the uncertainty around his continuity at the club. With the transfer window still open, sitting behind Samuel Soares might carry immediate consequences.
