International press: Benfica weigh up €10m Argentine centre-back | OneFootball

After securing the signing of Alessandro Circati, Benfica remain attentive to the market to strengthen the heart of the defence and, according to the international press, have identified another name for the position. In Argentina, it is being reported that the Eagles are preparing to enter negotiations with Boca Juniors for Lautaro Di Lollo, a 22-year-old centre-back.

to negotiate the young defender for a fee in the region of €10 million, despite Di Lollo having a release clause set at €20 million.

The defender has been taking on an important role at Boca Juniors and, in 2026, has already featured in 25 matches, also contributing two goals. The young Argentine’s performances are said to have caught the attention of several European clubs, with Benfica now emerging among the interested sides.

The Eagles’ potential move comes, however, after a strong investment in strengthening the department. Benfica have already secured three centre-backs this season: Clément Lenglet, Gabriel Índio and, more recently, Alessandro Circati. Even so, the club’s hierarchy does not seem to be closing the door on another market opportunity.

Di Lollo could be an option for the future and, if Boca Juniors are indeed willing to negotiate for around €10 million, the deal could become particularly attractive for Benfica. For now, there is no confirmation of a formal offer, but the possibility of the Eagles moving forward with talks with Boca Juniors promises to place Lautaro Di Lollo on Benfica’s radar.
