Player frozen out by Marco Silva at Benfica grafts... in a garage | OneFootball

Bruma remains out of Marco Silva’s plans at Benfica, but he is not giving up. The 31-year-old Portuguese international winger is on the Eagles’ transfer list and remains away from the first-team squad while he looks for a solution for his future.

Despite the delicate situation, the player is keeping up his daily work. Bruma shared images on social media of a training session with a personal trainer, apparently in a private garage equipped with gym equipment. The post shows that the winger remains focused on his physical preparation, even without a place among the options of the Reds’ coach.

Benfica are trying to find a solution for the player before the last remaining international transfer windows close. Greece has emerged as a possibility, since the Greek transfer window does not close until 15 September. Another option would be a mutual termination of the contract that currently ties Bruma to the club until 2028.

However, there is a significant obstacle for the board led by Rui Costa. Benfica are considering moving forward with an agreement to end the deal, but, according to Glorioso 1904, Bruma is not willing to terminate his contract. The situation is made even more complicated by the Portuguese international’s high salary and the lack, so far, of any concrete offers that could unlock the process. Benfica want to free up space both in the squad and on the wage bill, but they are facing resistance from the player himself.

Until a solution emerges, Bruma continues to work on his own and wait for an opportunity that will allow him to revive his career. The winger knows, however, that he is not part of Marco Silva’s plans for the 2026/27 season.
