Benfica striker ditched by Marco Silva nears Schalke move | OneFootball

Jelani Trevisan is set to leave Benfica during the current transfer window. The Belgian forward wants to leave the Eagles and is already on the radar of several European clubs, with Schalke 04 emerging as one of the main contenders to sign him.

According to transfer market specialist Sacha Tavolieri, the German club, which recently returned to the Bundesliga, has already made contact with the player’s representatives to learn the conditions of a possible deal.

“The Belgian attacker wants to leave Benfica, and Schalke 04 have already made contact with his representatives to explore the possibility of an agreement. Clubs from France and Italy are also keeping a close eye on the situation,” the Belgian journalist wrote on social media.

Despite his strong performances for the reserve team, Jelani Trevisan was not part of the group of players who began pre-season with Marco Silva’s first team. His absence from training further strengthens the possibility of the forward moving to a new club in the coming weeks.

In the 2025/26 season, Jelani Trevisan - valued at €400,000 - made 31 official appearances for Benfica: 27 in Liga Portugal Meu Super, two in Liga Revelação and two in the Premier League International Cup. In the 1,378 minutes he spent on the pitch, he recorded eight goals and two assists.
