Jan Virgili set for 12 million euros Club Brugge move after Benfica interest | OneFootball

Jan Virgili is very close to leaving Mallorca for Club Brugge. The winger, previously targeted by Benfica, is set for a move worth 12 million euros via his release clause.

According to Sport, Barcelona will receive 4.8 million euros from the deal, reflecting the 40% of his economic rights they retained.

The 20-year-old made 34 appearances last season, 31 in La Liga and three in the Copa del Rey, totalling 1,826 minutes. The Spain Under-21 international recorded three goals and five assists. He is valued at around 15 million euros and is preparing for his first move outside Spain.

Virgili had been monitored closely by Benfica during the window. He was also linked with a possible return to Barcelona, but now appears bound for Belgium.

As a result, Benfica miss out on another wide option, with Virgili poised to continue his career in Belgium.
