José Mourinho will give some minutes to Leandro Santos in Benfica's upcoming matches. In this Exclusive Glorioso 1904, our newspaper reveals that the international player for Portugal's youth teams should take advantage of the injuries to Amar Dedic and Bah to earn points with the coach.

The truth is that Leandro Santos has not yet been a choice for the main team because he suffered a minor injury, which prevented him, for example, from traveling with the team for the match against Chelsea. José Mourinho believes in the abilities of the 20-year-old athlete and, until Bah returns from injury, he is the alternative to Dedic.

Despite conflicting information, according to what Glorioso 1904 has found out, Leandro Santos might indeed play against Tondela. The match is scheduled for this Wednesday, October 29, at 8:45 PM, at Estádio da Luz, and is part of the League Cup quarter-finals.

Leandro Santos has a contract until June 2027, and Benfica's officials intend to renew it. Negotiations are ongoing, and an agreement could be reached soon, with the main issue being the assurance that the athlete will have opportunities, rather than any financial demands.

This season, wearing Benfica's jersey, Leandro Santos – valued at 1 million euros – has played 4 matches for the secondary team. In total, the full-back, who has a contract until June 2027, has accumulated 347 minutes, during which he made one assist, against Torreense.
