Exclusive Glorioso 1904: Benfica make key decision on André Luiz signing | OneFootball

Benfica will not give up on signing André Luiz. In this Glorioso 1904 Exclusive, our newspaper guarantees that the Club of Light will continue to try to finalize the signing of the Rio Ave forward, despite his performance in the match against the Eagles on January 17.

Glorioso 1904 has learned from a close source that the Eagles’ management, led by Rui Costa, were not indifferent to the Brazilian winger’s, at the very least, lackluster display. Nevertheless, they still believe he will be an asset to strengthen José Mourinho’s squad.

According to our newspaper’s findings, the 23-year-old winger was not satisfied with his performance and made a point of highlighting it on social media. Furthermore, Benfica also noticed André Luiz’s behavior when he was substituted by Sotiris Silaidopoulos, refusing to greet the coach upon arriving at the substitutes’ bench.

Glorioso 1904 knows, exclusively, that Benfica will continue to try to finalize the signing of André Luiz. However, the deadlock over the agreed sums has caused the Club of Light to lose some momentum regarding the Brazilian and shift their focus to Rafa Silva.

This season, wearing the Rio Ave shirt, André Luiz — valued at 4 million euros — has played 19 games: 18 in Liga Portugal Betclic and one in the Portuguese Cup. In the 1,463 minutes played, the winger, who is under contract until June 2029, has scored seven goals and provided five assists.
