Reason revealed for Sidny Lopes Cabral warming up alone at Benfica | OneFootball

Sidny Lopes Cabral drew attention before the match between Benfica and Casa Pia, as he was often seen alone during the warm-up and in the moments leading up to kick-off. However, this attitude is not the result of any distancing by his teammates, but rather a personal choice by the player on matchdays.

Despite this more reserved image, the winger maintains a calm relationship with the entire group. Even so, there are some teammates with whom he is closer, namely Leandro Barreiro, Dodi Lukebakio and Franjo Ivanovic, with whom he shares a stronger bond in the dressing room.

His habit of staying isolated is mainly linked to the way he approaches matches. The new signing prefers to stay focused and away from distractions, seeking to reach the best possible mental state before stepping onto the pitch. Even so, this behavior does not reflect his day-to-day life, where he is normally integrated within the group.

This season, both while playing for Estrela da Amadora and Benfica, Sidny Cabral — valued at 5 million euros — has already made 28 official appearances: 23 in Liga Portugal Betclic, two in the Champions League, two in the Portuguese Cup and one in the League Cup. In the 1,835 minutes he has been on the pitch, the player has recorded six goals and six assists.
