Official! Belgian striker leaves Benfica for good, joins new club | OneFootball

It’s official! Benfica have announced the departure of forward Jelani Trevisan to Romanian side Cluj. The Eagles confirmed they had reached an agreement for the “permanent transfer” of last season’s top scorer for the B team. The transfer fee was not disclosed.

. Trevisan had been with Benfica since 2022.

The club from Luz sent its “best wishes for success in this new challenge in his career and happiness in his personal life” to the new forward of the team that finished 11th in the Romanian league. Trevisan will be teammates with Portuguese player Simão Rocha.

It is worth remembering that the young striker was linked with Schalke in this summer transfer window. The German club, which recently returned to the Bundesliga, made contact with the player’s representatives to learn the terms of a possible deal — which ultimately did not happen.

In the 2025/26 season, Jelani Trevisan — valued at €400,000 — made 31 official appearances for Benfica: 27 in Liga Portugal Meu Super, two in Liga Revelação and two in the Premier League International Cup. In the 1,378 minutes he spent on the pitch, he recorded eight goals and two assists.
