Exclusive Glorioso 1904 – Benfica make key move on Rafa Silva | OneFootball

Rafa Silva could be a potential bonus for Benfica in the winter market. In this Exclusive Glorioso 1904, our newspaper reports that the red and white structure, led by Rui Costa, views the possible signing of the winger as a 'plus', meaning they will not be dependent on the 32-year-old athlete.

Glorioso 1904 has learned from a close source that the Clube da Luz has been closely monitoring the situation of the 32-year-old footballer at Beşiktaş, where he has clashed with the management and the coach of the black eagles. The signing, besides not incurring any cost, would be an added value for the Special One's options.

As our newspaper previously mentioned, Benfica does not intend to pay a single cent to Beşiktaş, with the eagles' officials, namely Rui Costa, waiting for Rafa Silva to terminate his contract with the Istanbul club, so they can sign the athlete at no cost.

On the other hand, as Glorioso 1904 has found out, the signing of the former number 27 of the reds is not a priority for the early days of January, since Benfica has other targets in mind, such as Toni Fruk and Sidny Cabral. Regarding the left-back, the reds have already started negotiations with the tricolors.

Rafa Silva — valued at 7 million euros — is at odds with Beşiktaş, not having played since November. In the current season, the number 27 of the black eagles has made 16 official appearances, across national and European competitions. In the 1,360 minutes he was on the pitch, the Portuguese international recorded five goals and three assists.
