I definitely want to sell Cardozo. Benfica paid a total of 12 million for him, which is what Galatasaray offered, soo we aren't making an profit, but we aren't losing any money either. Considering his age, 28, and how long he's been on the team, I would most certainly sell him at that price. Most fans are sick of him and want to move on and make room for Rodrigo and Nelson to be prime time strikers.

Now buying and selling Daniel Wass was absolutely obsured. He never played any game at all for Benfica. What a waste of time. Need to make smart signings and discuss it with JJ because if he doesn't approve, it will be another lost cause and send a load of players on loan.

Benfica sold Eder Luis and Felipe Bastos to Vasco da Gama for 3 million.

22 yr old LB Villaraga from Santa Fe on his way to Benfica on loan. Assuming that's for the B team.

I agree with selling Cardozo at that price. As for the Wass deal, you have to remember that he came on a free transfer so whatever Benfica gets for him is profit.

I would think left back. I think I would be a candidate for left back right now. Emerson was awful last year. No speed, not good defensively and no skill offensively. Can someone tell me why they signed him?

Why did we sign him? Take a guess who wanted him...Mr. Jesus himself.

Benfica4Life · Jun 23, 2012

Benfica's priority is selling.
http://www.record.xl.pt/Futebol/Nacional/1a_liga/Benfica/interior.aspx?content_id=763839

Benfica's 3 main selling targets are...
30 million for Witsel
25 million for Gaitan
15 million for Cardozo

Now I would be willing to sell Cardozo and Gaitan. Already sold Daniel Wass, Eder Luis and Felipe Bastos. Still have to offload Capdevila and Emerson. IF we could keep Javi and Witsel, that would be amazing.

Benfica are loaning out young CB Roderick Miranda and 18 year old midfielder Diego Lopes to Rio Ave.
http://www.abola.pt/nnh/ver.aspx?id=338220

Good move for both youngsters to get regular playing time in the Portuguese top flight. Diego Lopes is pretty highly rated, came to Portugal at a very young age from Brazil. Probably will end up playing for Portugal at the youth level in the near future when he gets his citizenship.

PortoDragons · Jun 23, 2012

Roderick has a ton of potential.

Benfica4Life · Jun 23, 2012

Quaresma and Manuel Fernades on their way to Benfica for $12.5 million!!! That would awesome!!!
Manny is Benfica's ideal replacement for Witsel says Record and Quaresma to replace Gaitan because Benfica failed to sign Salvio.

Come on LFV and Rui Costa make this happen!

He wasn't good defensively, but I liked his passes with Nolito..

Cardozo in France negotiating with PSG!

Joelzinho · Jun 24, 2012

Please please don't let Quaresma come here. Manuel Fernandes with open arms, but not Q. I'm over him completely, I hate seeing him on the National team, the same goes for SLB.

For LWB, we should go in for Eliseu. Hes Portuguese, fast, strong on the ball, and had decent crossing ability. Benfica literally have a record of transforming mediocre wingers to good wingbacks. Should be a no brainier.

If we sell Witsel, 100% go in for Manny. I think if he can play at that same level or higher that everyone was accustomed to in Turkey, he will break into the NT and help Benfica win the league.

Manchestor United want Aimar at 32 years old and offer Benfica 5 million.

That has to be the funniest transfer rumor this summer so far.

Rodrigoal · Jun 27, 2012

Carlos Martins wants to return to Benfica.

"Green light to finish Salvio deal." Diego Simeone wants Salvio to stay but Athletico Madrid need money to buy Diego from Wolfsburg. Benfica own 20% of Salvio's rights (2.5m) and can secure him with another 5 million.

Please just sign the kid and put an end to this saga. JJ, wants Salvio, The fans want Salvio, and Salvio himself wants to return to Benfica.

Rodrigoal · Jun 28, 2012

Felipe Menezes has been loaned to Sport Recife. http://www.record.xl.pt/Futebol/Nacional/1a_liga/Benfica/interior.aspx?content_id=764829

And Salvio will be in Lisbon next week to negotiate a deal! http://www.record.xl.pt/Futebol/Nacional/1a_liga/Benfica/interior.aspx?content_id=764750

Benfica interested in AC Milan's LB, Didac Vila.
http://abola.pt/nnh/ver.aspx?id=339274

When are we going to finally sign a LB?...We've signed 2 for the B team...

Rodrigoal · Jun 30, 2012

Eliseu on the way to Benfica?? I hope so. http://www.abola.pt/nnh/ver.aspx?id=339310

Ya I would take that in a heartbeat. He has quality, and I am sure the Benfica coaching management would help him become better defensively

Benfica interested in Leroy Fer, Twente's Dutch midfielder.

Real Zaragoza interested in Sidnei.

Benfica increase bid for Marcos Rojo to 3 million. Spartak asking 4m.

Players can no longer be loaned to first division teams, only 2nd division. This soccer "law" was just passed in Portugal. With that said David Simão terminated his contract with Benfica because he didn't have room on JJ's team and didn't want to be loaned to a 2nd division team. This is unfortunate, this kid was an amazing midfielder with tons of talent. Soo much potential, but I can understand the situation.

Rodrigoal · Jul 2, 2012

That sucks, he had so much potential. Now he'll probably end up with Porto or Sporting. -.-

See its already having an ill effect on the youth systems. Now it can either lead to the Portuguese league becoming more balanced or that talent leaving to another country.

I think the rule won't last long at all.

Benfica4Life · Jul 3, 2012

Though I don't necessarily agree with the new rule, it's supposed purpose is to encourage and develop Portuguese youths and discourage buying foreigners. Pretty much targeted at Benfica and Porto buying Brazilians and other South Americans and shipping them on loan.

Benfica4Life · Jul 3, 2012

Axel Witsel on the top of Chelsea's list.

LFV spoke wit Cardozo's agent yesterday and wants no less than 20 million.

Happy for him. And some people on these boards think playing in the championship gets you a place on the NT - Vaz Te
