Glorioso 1904 exclusive: Joaquim Nicolau on Benfica gem, worth over €50m | OneFootball

Joaquim Nicolau says that Andreas Schjelderup’s market value is above 50 million euros. In this Glorioso 1904 Exclusive, the actor and well-known supporter of the club in red analyzed Marco Silva’s team’s performance against Flamengo, addressed António Silva’s imminent departure, highlighted the profile of the centre-back Rui Costa should sign for the heart of the defense, and commented on the transfer rumors surrounding the Norwegian winger.

"Match against Flamengo? I liked the team’s positioning. Collectively Benfica need to play better, but individually there are a lot of changes to be made, otherwise I don’t believe. We’re missing a quality ‘6’, and José Neto is better than Samuel Dahl," he began by telling our newspaper.

António Silva has already made a decision about his future and intends to leave Benfica during the current summer transfer window. On this outcome, the actor was very clear regarding the young player: "António either renews or leaves", he commented.

As for the profile of the replacement, Joaquim Nicolau is asking for a signing with experience but still with room to grow. "The profile should be that of an experienced centre-back, but with room for progression. However, the starter should be Tomás Araújo alongside Clément Lenglet".

Andreas Schjelderup, especially after his performances at the Club World Cup. "Schjelderup is worth more than 50 million euros after the Club World Cup, especially since his release clause is 100 million", he concluded.
