Official! Zubizarreta and Benfica fail to agree, Eagles loan him out | OneFootball

It’s official. Tiago Gouveia has been loaned out by Benfica. The winger developed at Seixal was presented this Thursday as a new signing for Gençlerbirligi, a club from the city of Ankara that secured the Portuguese player’s loan for one season.

The 25-year-old had already traveled to the Turkish capital with Benfica’s authorization and successfully completed his medical exams before moving on to sign the contract. The club has a purchase option worth around €3 million.

The move allows the player to return to international football and seek a new opportunity to gain greater competitive regularity. The winger leaves Seixal once again after having represented Nice in France last season.

At Benfica, the player did not have immediate room among Marco Silva’s priority attacking options. Given that situation, the loan to Gençlerbirligi appears as an opportunity to get minutes, take on a bigger role, and once again play a more important part.
