Bruno Lage shares hopes for Lukebakio’s future at Benfica: the very best | OneFootball

Dodi Lukebakio has already started training at Benfica Campus, where he had the opportunity to mingle with the limited number of teammates who were not called up for their respective national team duties, with a view to qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. The 27-year-old winger also met Bruno Lage for the first time, with whom he exchanged a few words.

In his interaction with the technical team of Benfica, Dodi Lukebakio had the chance to exchange a few words with Bruno Lage, who wished "the best" to his new reinforcement. The footballer also met the general director of professional football of the reds, Mário Branco, as well as the technical director, Simão Sabrosa.

As for his teammates, Manu Silva was the first Benfica player to meet the winger. In the first words exchanged between the footballers, the still injured Manu asked the eagles' reinforcement what he would like to be called, to which the former Seville player replied: "Dodi is fine".

The new 'number 11' of Benfica had breakfast with Aursnes, Henrique Araújo and Samuel Soares, with whom he chatted during the meal. Revealing that he traveled from Belgium to Lisbon, the dribbler also stated that he speaks "a little" English.

Remember that Dodi Lukebakio was bought from Seville for 20 million euros and signed a contract with the eagles until 2030. With a termination clause of 50 million euros, the athlete is recovering from a muscle edema in his right leg, suffered while still serving his former club.
