Renan Lodi on Benfica’s radar, Eagles could land him for free | OneFootball

Benfica may move forward with the signing of Renan Lodi. After terminating his contract with Al Hilal, the Brazilian international who has represented his country 19 times and played for Atletico Madrid, could be an alternative to Samuel Dahl on the left flank. The news was reported by Pedro Sousa and Sérgio Krithinas.

“There was a competitor who acquired a player who was free on the market [De Jong, Porto]. What do you think Benfica is missing? Wingers or Carreras type wings. Benfica has a free player, if they want to go get him, who is very good: Renan Lodi”, began Pedro Sousa, on the NOW channel.

“Renan Lodi unilaterally terminated his contract with Al Hilal. He is free and can sign for any club, but there may be consequences for the club that hires him”, added Sérgio Krithinas, reporting on the process of the former Atletico Madrid player's departure from the Saudi emblem, which was somewhat controversial.

Last season, while playing for Al Hilal, Renan Lodi - valued at 13 million euros - played in 42 matches: 24 in the National Championship, nine in the Asian Champions League, five in the Club World Cup, two in the King’s Cup and two in the Super Cup. In the 3,342 minutes he was on the field, the Brazilian international scored four goals and made nine assists.
