Benfica work on new deal offer for Marco Silva’s firebrand | OneFootball

Gianluca Prestianni was the standout performer for Benfica in the win over Aarhus (3-1) in the second leg of the Europa League play-off round. The winger scored two goals in the match on Danish soil and maintained the consistency he had shown at the start of the season. Given his performances, the club from Luz wants to reward the player.

According to the newspaper A BOLA, despite the fact that the footballer is under contract until 2029 and is protected by a 100-million-euro release clause.

After the victory in Denmark, which secured a place in the Europa League league phase, the president was emphatic in his mixed-zone comments. "Prestianni? It is clear that he is another player we want to keep, there is no doubt about that", he said.

The Argentine winger scored two goals against Aarhus and confirmed an exceptional run of form: he has five goals in six games (five as a starter), an average of 0.83 goals per match, and has also registered one assist.

It is already the best spell for the attacker since he signed for the Eagles in January 2024, having joined from Vélez Sarsfield for 9 million euros (for 85% of his rights), with bonuses that could raise the deal to 11 million euros.
