Fredrik Aursnes on his Benfica future: My contract... | OneFootball

Fredrik Aursnes considers ending his career at Benfica. According to the Norwegian footballer, in a recent interview, he has a long-term contract with the Eagles and, for that reason, does not rule out the idea of hanging up his boots at Estádio da Luz. In addition, the midfielder also previewed the derby.

In an exclusive interview with the newspaper A Bola, ahead of the Lisbon derby, Aursnes clarified his situation regarding his future at Benfica. “Of course. My contract ends in four years,” began the former Norwegian international.

“By then I’ll be older, of course it’s an option, and I wouldn’t mind. I think it’s a good option,” acknowledged the player, one of José Mourinho’s regular picks, admitting that it’s an idea that crosses his mind; however, it’s still too early for certainties.

It is worth noting that Fredrik Aursnes, 29, has been one of José Mourinho’s undisputed starters since the Setúbal native took charge of the Eagles. On the eve of the clash with Sporting, the number 8 is seen as an important asset for the Special One, alongside the returning Richard Ríos.
