Press claim Benfica have already set Pavlidis asking price | OneFootball

In the final moments of the 2025/26 season, clubs are already starting to look ahead to the new campaign and make some decisions regarding their squads and the transfer market. With that in mind, Benfica, who are open to negotiating the sale of Vangelis Pavlidis, have reportedly already set the Greek international’s price.

According to the Turkish press, the Club from Luz, led by Rui Costa, believes the 27-year-old striker should be sold for a fee of around €35 million. According to the same source, the Eagles’ hierarchy believe this amount reflects the Greek international’s performances and also allows them to recover the investment made in 2024/25.

This news comes at a time when the number 14 shirt has been linked with a move to strengthen Fenerbahçe’s attack, as the club looks to increase its attacking options in an attempt to dethrone current four-time Turkish champions Galatasaray. With that in mind, Benfica want to bring in a significant fee that would allow the Eagles to go into the market.

On the other hand, it should be remembered that Pavlidis is one of several names being considered transferable by Benfica’s SAD. At a time when Champions League qualification is not guaranteed, the Club from Luz may be forced to sell some of its main assets in order to balance the books next season.

This season, playing for Benfica, Vangelis Pavlidis — valued at €32 million — has already made 52 official appearances: 32 in Liga Portugal Betclic, 14 in the Champions League, three in the Portuguese Cup, two in the League Cup and one in the Super Cup. In the 4,154 minutes he has spent on the pitch, the Greek has scored 30 goals and provided five assists.
