Glorioso 1904 exclusive - Ederson wants to return to Benfica | OneFootball

Ederson Moraes wants to return to Benfica, Glorioso 1904 has learned. The Brazilian international is going through a spell of dissatisfaction at Fenerbahçe, where pressure from the fans and growing criticism surrounding his performances have created a tense atmosphere, far removed from the stability he was seeking when he moved to Turkey.

According to information obtained by Glorioso 1904, the former Eagles goalkeeper feels that he experienced some of the best moments of his career in Lisbon, as it was in the Portuguese capital that he established himself at the highest level and gained international recognition.

However, despite the clear desire, the deal is far from simple. Ederson is under contract with Fenerbahçe until 2028, which puts the Turkish club in a very strong position in any potential negotiations, seriously complicating the opening of an exit process in the short term.

On top of that, there is also the financial factor, which could prove decisive in preventing the return. The goalkeeper currently earns a salary well above Benfica’s financial reality, which would require a significant reduction in his wages for the transfer to even begin to take shape. Even so, the player’s name remains very much in the frame, in a case that, for now, depends more on emotional willingness than on concrete conditions to move forward.

This season, Ederson Moraes - valued at €13 million - has already featured in 36 matches: 24 in the Turkish League, nine in the Europa League, two in the Turkish Super Cup and one in the Cup. In 3,242 minutes on the pitch, the Brazilian goalkeeper has conceded 37 goals.
