Man United already in contact over Benfica first-teamer | OneFootball

Richard Ríos continues to be one of the most closely watched names in Benfica’s squad on the international market, with the Colombian midfielder attracting strong interest from the Premier League. Man United are said to have already taken initial steps to understand the conditions of a possible deal

According to the English press, the “Red Devils” are assessing the cost and feasibility of a possible move for the Eagles’ No. 20. With a release clause set at €100 million, the midfielder is also being tracked by other European clubs, such as Fulham, in addition to interest from Italian sides like Napoli, Inter and Roma.

However, the Eagles are not open to making the midfielder’s exit easy. José Mourinho’s protégé is comfortable at the Luz, and Benfica, for now, do not intend to negotiate his departure, even looking at a possible increase in value at the next World Cup.

This season, in the service of Benfica, Richard Ríos — valued at €22 million — has already made 42 appearances: 24 in the Liga Portugal Betclic, 12 in the Champions League, three in the Portuguese Cup, two in the League Cup and one in the Super Cup. In the 3,368 minutes he has been on the pitch, he has recorded five goals and five assists.
