Benfica, Marseille and Trabzonspor in the race for Dynamo Kyiv star | OneFootball

Taras Mykhavko’s name is being linked with Benfica. The 21-year-old centre-back, currently playing for Dynamo Kyiv, is regarded as one of the brightest prospects in his country’s football and recently earned his first senior caps for the Ukraine national team.

According to reports published in his homeland, the Eagles are preparing an offer in the region of €10 million to secure the signing of the young defender. In addition to Benfica, Marseille and Trabzonspor are also among the clubs keeping an eye on the player’s situation.

Despite the rumours linking Mykhavko with the Luz, the defender is not expected to be part of the SAD’s plans for this transfer window. The structure led by Rui Costa continues to work on other targets to strengthen the team’s central defence.

The Eagles are looking to sign two centre-backs with different characteristics for next season. The priority is to bring in a more experienced player, capable of competing for a place in the starting XI with António Silva -who has a renewal offer- and Tomás Araújo.

Taras Mykhavko - valued at €10 million - featured in 39 matches during the 2026/27 season for Dynamo Kyiv, in which he managed to score six goals. The centre-back is in his third season with the Ukrainian club.
