PSV winger could be picked to replace Lukebakio at Benfica | OneFootball

Benfica are weighing a move for PSV winger Esmir Bajraktarevic as a contingency if Dodi Lukebakio departs, according to Glorioso 1904.

The Bosnian international was close to a switch to Spain near the end of the window.

The Eindhoven club prepared for a possible exit by recruiting Sami Ouaissa from NEC.

With Portugal’s market still open and cover in place, Bajraktarevic’s move was held up as Lukebakio remained at the Luz.

The promising youngster, who featured at the last World Cup, is staying in the Netherlands while his situation is clarified.

Benfica’s board are keeping the option on file and will monitor any late movements before domestic registrations close.
