Done deal! Marco Silva outcast has terminated Benfica deal - exclusive | OneFootball

Bruma is not in Marco Silva’s plans for the 2026/27 season, and Benfica are looking for a solution for the winger’s future. Our newspaper, last Thursday, reported that the club was willing to terminate the player’s contract - something that is indeed going to happen.

According to information from Record, Bruma has already agreed to terminate his contract with the Eagles, and the winger is set to join Greek side Aris as a free agent. Benfica’s SAD thus resolves the last pending issue it still had, after the transfer window closed in practically every country.

It is true that players can still be registered in Greece, but the Thessaloniki club was not willing to pay a transfer fee. The solution ultimately found was a contract termination between the parties, and Bruma will travel on Sunday with the aim of signing for Aris on a one-season deal with an option for another.

The 31-year-old forward was under contract with the Eagles until June 2028, so he still had two seasons left. The possibility was raised that the footballer could demand the amounts corresponding to the remainder of his contract, a scenario which has, however, been ruled out.

Bruma joined Benfica in January 2025 for 6.5 million euros from Braga. The former Olympiacos player spent last season recovering from injury, making only three appearances. This season, he has yet to take the field.
