With or without Mourinho, Benfica to back Seixal talents next season | OneFootball

According to Glorioso 1904, Benfica are shaping next season around promoting Seixal talents, regardless of Mourinho's future, with several already involved in the first team.

Leading the group is 18-year-old striker Anísio Cabral, who has extended his deal to 2031 with a 100 million euros clause. He featured across juniors, under-23s, the B team and the senior side, where he has scored two goals, and shone for the under-17s with seven in eight during a World Cup-winning campaign.

Right-back Daniel Banjaqui is under contract to 2031 with an 80 million euros clause and has already logged first-team minutes. He is on the radar of elite clubs, including Barcelona, which has made an initial approach.

Left-back José Neto, also an under-17 world champion, is protected by an 80 million euros clause and has had senior minutes. He is viewed as a clear long-term option despite direct competition from Samuel Dahl.

Attacking midfielder Gonçalo Moreira, 20, posted standout numbers, nine goals and four assists for the juniors, seven goals and six assists for the B team and nine in the Youth League. He has a guaranteed place in the 2026/27 pre-season, underlining a commitment to a new academy-led core.
