Hugo Félix’s future takes a twist, but Benfica back João Félix’s brother | OneFootball

Hugo Félix is set to join Tondela, contrary to what was initially planned, as Elche was the first destination on the table. Now, it seems, the brother of João Félix, who was trained entirely at Benfica, will continue in Portugal. The Reds defend the potential value of the player.

"The creative player and brother of João Félix will sign a contract valid for four seasons, that is, until 2029 with the gold and greens, while Benfica still retains a percentage of the pass", reveals the newspaper Record. It seems that the eagles will keep 50% of the economic rights.

In the main team of Benfica, Hugo Félix only played one match. In the 4-0 victory of Bruno Lage's team against Tirsense, on April 23, 2025, the midfielder came on at the 80th minute, replacing Tiago Gouveia, in a moment that will forever be in his memory.

The departure of Hugo Félix from Benfica in this transfer market was a scenario that was being predicted. In 2025/26, the young 21-year-old midfielder, who had a contract until June 2027, had not played any minutes with the Sacred Mantle, either in the main team or in team B.

In the 2024/25 season, where he played almost entirely in the eagles' B team, Hugo Félix - valued at 2.5 million euros - was featured in 36 matches: 32 in the Second League, three in the Premier League International Cup and one in the Portugal Cup. In the 2,653 minutes played with the Benfica shirt, the midfielder scored two goals, adding 10 assists.
