Watch out! Benfica target one of Romania's top prospects | OneFootball

Benfica are interested in signing Razvan Marincean, a 17-year-old Romanian striker, and have reportedly already submitted an offer to secure his services. According to information coming from Romania, the bid could reach €1 million if certain objectives are met.

The Eagles’ initial offer is around €400,000, a figure that could rise to the maximum amount envisaged if the young Romanian international meets previously established targets. According to several Romanian media outlets, Marincean has been closely monitored by Benfica, who have decided to move forward with his signing.

He made his debut for Farul Constanța’s first team on November 3, 2025, when he was just 16 years old. With that appearance, he became the first player born in 2009 and developed at the Hagi Academy to play in the top division of Romanian football.

Considered one of the most promising talents of his generation, Marincean was one of the key players for the Romanian national team in their run to qualify for the 2026 Under-17 World Cup, which will begin on November 19 in Qatar.

The young forward is also one of the latest products of the prestigious Hagi Academy, a training centre founded by former international Gheorghe Hagi, one of the greatest figures in the history of Romanian football, remembered for his outstanding performances at the 1994 World Cup.
