Exclusive Glorioso 1904: Benfica set João Rego’s future for 2026/27 | OneFootball

The future of João Rego is unlikely to involve Benfica. In this Exclusive Glorioso 1904, our newspaper reports that the Club of Light, led by Rui Costa, intends for the footballer to leave Seixal in the 2026/27 season, with the purpose of observing the athlete in a first league team.

Glorioso 1904, through a close source, knows that the idea is to loan João Rego, in order to aid the footballer's development in a more competitive environment where he will have more playing opportunities. Thus, as our newspaper states, Benfica wants the player to gain experience in the first division, to be better prepared to play in the squad under José Mourinho's orders.

With this idea in mind, Glorioso 1904 reports exclusively that the footballer, currently playing mostly in Benfica's B team, is expected to leave the Club of Light in the summer and join one of the first league teams. However, it is still too early to point out the most likely destination for João Rego.

Moreover, as our newspaper had previously reported, Benfica continues to trust in the capabilities of the young Portuguese international, and this is evidenced by the information the Club itself presented in the Annual Report, informing that Rego had renewed his contract until 2030.

This season, wearing Benfica's jersey, João Rego — valued at 3 million euros — played a total of 21 official matches: eight in Liga Portugal Betclic, seven in Liga Portugal Meu Super, three in the Taça de Portugal, two in the Champions League, and one in the Taça da Liga.
