Besiktas eye Dodi Lukebakio with Benfica not ruling out talks | OneFootball

Besiktas are targeting Dodi Lukebakio, who wants to remain at Benfica, though the club are not ruling out negotiations.

According to Glorioso 1904, the Turkish side are seeking a new right winger and have Lukebakio on their list, while also monitoring another option in Italy whose identity was not disclosed.

The Belgium international joined Benfica in summer 2025 from Sevilla in a deal worth 20 million euros. He signed until 2030, with a release clause set at 50 million euros.

He has yet to secure a leading role. This season he has three games under Marco Silva, with one goal and one assist. Last term he played 23 times, scoring once and adding three assists.

His future remains open as the window nears its close, despite his public wish to stay at Benfica. Besiktas interest could reopen the issue if a proposal arrives that suits the Benfica hierarchy. The club must choose between persisting with him or considering a sale only a year after his arrival.
