Rui Costa and Marco Silva join forces to sign 4 stars for Benfica | OneFootball

Benfica’s pre-season is close to getting underway, and Rui Costa and the rest of the structure are already planning for the 2026/2027 season. The board will secure reinforcements for Marco Silva, prioritizing players of unquestionable quality and with the ability to claim a starting spot immediately.

According to information from newspaper O JOGO, this strategy could help Benfica return to winning titles. The positions that could be strengthened are central defense (with two signings), the left side of the attack, and the striker position.

Despite work beginning on June 25, the current sporting policy at the Luz is to sign the identified targets rather than buy in a hurry. The Eagles will rely on patience, signing new players in a precise and well-thought-out manner.

Another important detail is the fact that Rui Costa and Marco Silva are prioritizing the stay of a large part of the current squad. In addition to signing players seen as important and capable of making an immediate impact, Benfica’s current players can help achieve the objectives for the new season.
