Daniel Banjaqui is attracting significant attention in European football. Several Premier League clubs are closely monitoring the progress of the player trained in Seixal and may make a concrete offer in the next summer transfer window.

According to 'TEAMtalk', there are seven English clubs interested in the young defender: Liverpool, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, Newcastle, and Tottenham. All these clubs have either approached or shown interest in the young talent from the Eagles.

Besides the English clubs, other European giants are also following the situation of the 17-year-old footballer. Both Bayern Munich and Barcelona have already shown interest, and there have even been preliminary talks about a possible deal in the future.

Despite the strong competition, the Club of Light intends to keep the young full-back. The Reds have reportedly reached an agreement with the player's representatives for a contract renewal, something that could be formalized when the winger turns 18 on March 24.

This season, playing for Benfica, Daniel Banjaqui — valued at 1 million euros — has already played a total of 23 matches: 11 in Liga Portugal Meu Super, six in the UEFA Youth League, three in Liga Revelação, two in Liga Portugal Betclic, and one in the Taça de Portugal.
