Diogo Prioste: Benfica ‘to loan’ 22-year-old as Gil Vicente eye move and Alverca monitor | OneFootball

Diogo Prioste has fresh top-flight interest, with Gil Vicente keen on a loan this summer. The 22-year-old has completed his Benfica B spell and is looking to establish himself in Liga Portugal.

Record writes that Benfica plan to place the Portugal under-21 international in the top tier to secure senior minutes, mirroring João Veloso’s pathway.

Alongside Gil Vicente, Alverca are tracking the midfielder closely and intend to move for a loan to reinforce their midfield for the 2026/27 season.

Benfica will assess proposals before deciding, prioritising the project that offers stronger guarantees of game time and development. The positive relationship between the clubs is viewed as helpful in talks with Alverca.

Prioste made two first-team appearances last season. For Benfica B he played 27 official matches, scoring four goals and providing seven assists.
