Breaking news! Rafa Silva could return to Benfica as early as January | OneFootball

Breaking news! Rafa Silva might be returning. The rumor surfaced today, November 13, with several sources suggesting that the Portuguese international could be making a comeback to Benfica. It would be an alternative to his decision to end his career.

The news was reported by Pedro Sousa, live on the NOW channel, where he stated that there is a strong possibility of the former Portuguese international returning to the Luz emblem, just one season after moving to Besiktas on a free transfer.

During his report, the journalist acknowledged that despite some friction between the footballer and Rui Costa over contract renewal issues during the 2023/24 season, he added that the President, re-elected on November 9, would welcome the athlete's return.

Receiving a salary well above Benfica's means, Rafa Silva, according to Pedro Sousa, is open to returning to Benfica if he receives an offer that meets his expectations. However, it is still unknown if the two parties have had any contact, but the Besiktas player has been in Portugal in recent days.

This possibility arises at a time when Rafa Silva - valued at 7 million euros - is at odds with the Istanbul club, as he is dissatisfied with Besiktas's current situation. Additionally, reports indicate that the athlete is considering retiring from football.
