Official! Florentino Luís joins Ipswich: what Benfica get (Video) | OneFootball

After the 26 million euros (€24M+€2M) he brought in at the end of last season, due to the mandatory purchase clause Burnley had following a one-season loan, Florentino Luís is once again set to bring Benfica a significant sum.

Ipswich Town officially announced on Tuesday the signing of the 26-year-old Portuguese midfielder, who arrives for a fee of around £16 million (€18.7 million), according to figures reported by the English press.

With this move, Benfica will receive another €930,000, relating to FIFA’s solidarity mechanism (5% of €18.7 million, the value of the transfer operation from Burnley to Ipswich).

Florentino Luís came through at Benfica and made his first-team debut in the 2018/19 season. He played for two seasons and was then loaned to Monaco and Getafe, later returning when Roger Schmidt was the coach. He won two league titles, three Super Cups and one League Cup.

In the 2025/26 season, wearing the Burnley shirt, Florentino Luís — valued at €16 million — played 33 matches: 31 in the Premier League and two in the FA Cup.
