Benfica set to pass on signing, Eredivisie could be the answer | OneFootball

Sidny Cabral is increasingly falling out of José Mourinho’s plans. Signed by Benfica in the winter transfer window, the 23-year-old footballer is still struggling to establish himself at the Club of Light and, due to the lack of opportunities, several sources indicate that the player has already been approached about leaving the Eagles soon.

According to the newspaper O Jogo, Sidny Cabral’s stay at Benfica next season is far from guaranteed, even less so if José Mourinho remains at the Club of Light and, eventually renews his contract with the Reds. With that in mind, the Cape Verdean is weighing up the options currently on the table.

The same source explains that the 23-year-old footballer has received several enquiries from clubs interested in having him contribute next season. The sports daily highlights that part of the interest comes from teams playing in the Netherlands, where the player completed his development.

The truth is that the number 15 has been in free fall since signing for Benfica. After a promising start in the Eagles shirt, Sidny Cabral gradually lost his prominence in Benfica’s squad, and there were incidents that reportedly harmed the player, recalling the moment when he asked Vinícius Jr. for his shirt, something that left the fans quite displeased.

Signed from Estrela da Amadora for 5.75 million euros, with the payment of a bonus that could reach 2.5 million euros also agreed, Sidny Cabral’s future is unlikely to lie with Benfica. However, the Eagles are currently not willing to listen to offers, as they are waiting to see the winger’s performances at the World Cup while representing the Cape Verde national team.
