Sidny Cabral future uncertain, Benfica ‘to wait’ on World Cup before decision | OneFootball

Sidny Cabral will head to his first World Cup with Cape Verde while his Benfica future remains unresolved. It is a historic appearance for the island nation.

Record reports that his situation is on hold, with neither side in a hurry to decide. Benfica intend to wait for the tournament, hoping his market value increases, and José Mourinho’s departure is described as close.

The 23-year-old is considered negotiable in the summer window. He is not rushing to leave, instead wanting to learn whether he fits the plans of the incoming coach.

Cabral had understood that, if Mourinho had remained, a move could have followed, an option he still does not rule out. The change on the bench has prompted him to pause any decision.

Benfica believe a strong World Cup could lift his price. Cape Verde will meet Spain, Uruguay and Saudi Arabia in the United States.
