Chelsea ‘monitoring’ Benfica winger Gianluca Prestianni after strong start to season | OneFootball

Chelsea are among several Premier League clubs tracking Benfica winger Gianluca Prestianni after his strong start to the season. TEAMtalk reports that the Blues are closely following the 20-year-old Argentina international.

Tottenham, Manchester United, Newcastle and Brighton have also kept tabs on his development through their scouting teams in recent months.

Despite the growing attention, there is currently no formal offer being prepared. Interested clubs are evaluating his progress and whether he is ready to take the next step.

Prestianni joined Benfica in 2024 from Vélez Sarsfield, having already drawn interest from several European sides during his emergence in Argentina.

Choosing Benfica was viewed as a route to continue his growth in a competitive European setting, building experience and consolidating his game before potentially moving to another league.
