Benfica keep an eye on Renan Lodi, but Italy are calling for the Brazilian | OneFootball

Renan Lodi is on AS Roma's wishlist. According to reports, the Italian club is interested in the left-back, who also appears on the list of potential targets for Benfica, as our newspaper has already mentioned. The Italian side knows they can negotiate directly with the player.

According to Sportmediaset, the team from the Italian capital, where former Eagles goalkeeper Mile Svilar plays, is interested in completing the signing of the Brazilian international, who is currently a free agent after terminating his contract with Al Hilal, one of the biggest clubs in Saudi Arabia.

Benfica, as Glorioso 1904 previously reported, showed interest in trying to sign the Brazilian; however, his reputation as a player with a certain degree of misconduct and some disciplinary incidents has made the Benfica management somewhat hesitant about his signing.

Nevertheless, it is worth remembering that Benfica has other options on the table for the left-back position. As is publicly known, the Eagles are committed to finalizing the signing of Sidny Cabral from Estrela da Amadora. The versatility of the Cape Verdean is highly appreciated by José Mourinho.

Renan Lodi would, in fact, be a solution that fits what José Mourinho is looking for. The Benfica coach wants two wingers and a full-back to strengthen the team in the winter transfer market. An experienced player like the Brazilian international would solve the problem in the defensive line, but we will have to wait to see how this operation develops.
