Prestianni's Benfica future decided in hours: Trabzonspor push | OneFootball

Gianluca Prestianni’s future could be decided in the next few hours. The Argentine winger’s representatives are in Lisbon to discuss the matter with Benfica’s board, at a time when Trabzonspor has taken a step forward in the negotiations by submitting a concrete offer.

According to Record, the Turkish club has put a €20 million offer on the table, a figure that matches the demands set by the Eagles to release the 20-year-old player. Prestianni’s agents travelled to the Portuguese capital with the aim of assessing the various scenarios on the table for the player’s future. In addition to the interest shown by clubs in Spain and Italy, a discussion about a possible contract renewal was also planned.

Although the Argentine’s current deal runs until 2029, his representatives wanted to review the winger’s salary conditions, as he has been on the same wages since arriving at Benfica in January 2024, when he was just 17 years old. From the player’s point of view, his sporting development and growing prominence in the team justified an update to his contract.

Even so, the offer submitted by Trabzonspor could completely change the course of the negotiations and pave the way for a transfer. It should be remembered that Benfica invested €9 million to sign Prestianni from Vélez Sarsfield, with the Argentine club retaining 15% of a future sale. In addition to the offer made to Benfica, Trabzonspor has also presented much more attractive terms to the player. According to the same source, the winger could nearly triple his salary if he agrees to move to Turkish football.

If the transfer is confirmed, he will follow the same path as Sidny Cabral, who also recently left Benfica for Trabzonspor. The Cape Verde international brought €7 million into Benfica’s coffers, in a deal that also included 20% of a future capital gain in favour of the Lisbon club.
