River Plate want Gianluca Prestianni, but Benfica still in the dark | OneFootball

River Plate is preparing to make another move for Gianluca Prestianni, but has not yet formalized any proposal. The information, reported by the D Sports website, clarifies the real state of the process. The Argentine club is keeping a close eye on the young player, however, Benfica's management has yet to receive any official document regarding this market dossier.

Previous reports suggested that the Buenos Aires giant had offered 6 million euros. This amount aimed to secure 50% of the winger's economic rights. However, this formal approach never landed at Luz's office. The supposed financial move remains, for now, in the realm of intentions.

It remains to be seen what the club's position will be if this offer actually arrives. Gianluca Prestianni has been a regular choice for José Mourinho in recent weeks. The creative player was even a starter in the 1-0 defeat against Porto, in a match for the Portuguese Cup.

The athlete has never hidden his desire to play for the giant River Plate. However, the fact that he is getting more playing time at Benfica could drastically change the scenario. His continuity in the main team of the Eagles and the confidence of the Portuguese coach could weigh heavily on the player's final decision regarding his immediate future.

This season, wearing Benfica's jersey, Gianluca Prestianni – valued at 12 million euros – has played 22 games: 13 in Liga Portugal Betclic, four in the Champions League, two in the Portuguese Cup, two in the League Cup, and one in the Super Cup. In the 821 minutes he was on the field, the athlete scored two goals and made one assist.
