Schjelderup’s Benfica future in question: Glorioso 1904 exclusive | OneFootball

The departure of Andreas Schjelderup might not happen after all. In this Exclusive Glorioso 1904, our newspaper suggests that, given the current transfer market situation, Benfica, led by Rui Costa, might be considering not releasing the coveted Nordic international.

According to Glorioso 1904, exclusively, there are new nuances that could help Schjelderup remain in the squad under José Mourinho's command. Despite the strong interest he has attracted, most recently from Club Brugge, the winger could become an asset for the second half of the Eagles' season.

From what our newspaper has gathered, the fact that the deal for André Luiz is close to falling through and that Rafa Silva is the only reinforcement arriving at Luz leads the Reds to consider keeping the Norwegian, so José Mourinho has several options for the wings. A potential failure to access the Champions League playoffs would substantially reduce the Eagles' financial capabilities to attack the market.

Adding to these scenarios is the fact that Schjelderup delivered a very positive performance in Vila do Conde, which may have helped José Mourinho regain confidence in the player's abilities. In fact, as Glorioso 1904 knows, the number 21 is expected to start again in the Champions League clash against Juventus.

This season, playing for Benfica, Andreas Schjelderup — valued at 14 million euros — has played 23 games: 12 in the Liga Portugal Betclic, six in the Champions League, four in the Portuguese Cup, and one in the League Cup. In the 1,047 minutes he was on the field, the winger scored two goals and made three assists.
