José Manuel Freitas: one player won't play on Benfica's right wing again | OneFootball

The inclusion of Jakub Kaminski in Alexander Bah’s place in Marítimo - Benfica was a surprising choice by Marco Silva. The Polish winger played in a more defensive role and did the bare minimum. However, José Manuel Freitas says the signing was not impressive.

"Kaminski was a stopgap solution; I don’t see him becoming an option for Benfica’s style of play. From what I saw, I didn’t find anything special," he began by saying during a debate on the Now channel with journalist Paulo Catarro.

Next, the journalist even stated that Kaminski will never play as a full-back again. "Kaminski, being a wide midfielder/winger, is naturally attack-minded, so defensively he doesn’t offer many guarantees. It was a stopgap solution that I don’t think Benfica will use ever again", he assured.

In the matches against Aarhus and Estoril, Kaminski had not come off the bench, totaling just 163 minutes this season up to the latest clash. The direct competition in the attacking sector increased with the return of Andreas Schjelderup after his participation in the World Cup with Norway.
