Surprise! Benfica player set to be dropped from first team | OneFootball

David Jurásek will be removed from Besiktas' main squad, and is expected to find a new destination in his career starting in January 2026, when the winter transfer window opens. The Benfica player is not experiencing a positive moment at the Turkish club where he is on loan from the Eagles.

Besiktas is going through a real crisis of results in the Turkish championship, and coach Sergen Yalcin has already decided to take some drastic measures to change the situation. The first step is the removal of two players from the main squad of the Istanbul team.

Jonas Svensson and David Jurásek are the two players not in the plans of the Besiktas coach. This means they will be removed from the main squad, and will have to find a new club in January 2026. Benfica may be obliged to assist in finding a new adventure for the player who still belongs to their ranks.

David Jurásek was one of the first players signed after Grimaldo's departure from Benfica. The player never established himself in the Eagles' team and ended up being loaned to Hoffenheim. After that period, he was again loaned, this time to Besiktas.

He started the season as a starter, playing 14 games for Besiktas in 2024/25. However, the situation seems to have changed, as he was not an option in the last four matches, a sign of the main coach's dissatisfaction at the Turkish club. The situation worsened even more after the defeat in the derby against Fenerbahçe, where the team was leading 2-0 but allowed a comeback, in a game where Kokçu, another former Benfica player, received a direct red card.
