Trubin sends message to Benfica target: Come to Benfica | OneFootball

Anatoliy Trubin starred in an unusual moment on TikTok, after commenting on a post by Georgiy Sudakov, where he wrote: "Come to Benfica". The Eagles' goalkeeper thus made an appeal to his compatriot, who has been strongly coveted by the Club of Light and may even reinforce the reds.

The 22-year-old Ukrainian midfielder is currently serving Shakhtar Donetsk, a club with which Benfica had to negotiate Anatoliy Trubin in the summer of 2023. The players have known each other for some time, having shared a locker room both at the Ukrainian club and in the Ukrainian national team.

Apparently, Georgiy Sudakov really wants to join Benfica, having put pressure on Shakhtar Donetsk's leaders to make the transfer happen. This desire on the part of the young man may be the great trump card of the eagles, considering that negotiations with the Ukrainian club have not been easy.

Shakhtar Donetsk will only sell the midfielder for a fee of around 30 million euros, a value that is currently out of the question for Benfica's coffers. Thus, in order to facilitate the deal, the eagles may formalize a proposal similar to the one they made for Trubin, where they left the Ukrainian club with a significant percentage of the player's pass, which will allow for a significant financial gain for Shakhtar in a future sale.

This season, Georgiy Sudakov – valued at 32 million euros – has played nine matches so far: five in the Europa League qualifying phase, three in the National Championship and one in the Conference League qualifiers. In the 643 minutes he's been on the pitch, the midfielder has made two assists.
