Official! Former Benfica striker leaves Madrid, signed by Zubizarreta | OneFootball

It is official. Leganés, the club from the outskirts of Madrid, announced that it has reached an agreement with Atlas for the transfer of Cape Verde international striker Luís Duk to the Mexican club. The former Benfica forward will join the club of sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta.

The 26-year-old striker arrived at the Club of Light in 2016 to represent Benfica’s under-17 team (juveniles), having left the Eagles in the summer transfer window of 2022 without making a single minute of appearance for the first team, when he was signed by Aberdeen of Scotland.

Before arriving at Benfica, Duk had spells at clubs such as Sporting, Os Montelavarenses, Associação Desportiva de Oeiras and Belenenses. In 2022, he left the Club of Light to move to Scotland, where he played for Aberdeen.

Born in Lisbon, the centre-forward thus brings his spell at the Spanish club to an end after a year and a half. Luís Duk arrived at Leganés, in January 2025, for a fee of 450 thousand euros and represented the blanquiazul over the last two seasons.

Luís Duk - currently valued at 2 million euros by the website Transfermarkt - scored four goals and provided five assists in 2025/2026, totaling 2,470 minutes in 38 matches for Leganés, the Spanish team managed by Igor Pulido.
