    Very good transfer season this year for Benfica.

    Looks like Chelsea really want Lindelöf and Lazio have placed a 10M€ bid for Jardel that got refused.

    Fiorentina really want Fejsa and have placed a bid. I don't see them accepting it and also Benfica paid 22m€ for Raul Jimenez who looks destined for a big year.

    Andre Almeida looks like he is getting better and better and has had an awesome preseason

    So far only addition Benfica need is maybe a young GK for the 3rd spot

    is it just rumors that Benfica is interested in the Canadian striker Cyle Larin (of Orlando City SC) ?

    Yeah, no substance to it as far as i'm concerned. We're pretty stacked at that position.

    What a great move.

    The biggest club in the history of the country just made the most expensive transfer for a Portuguese player in history and paying him €2.5M a year. Fantastic!

    Of course it is, transfer fees have only increased in recent years so it was bound to happen at some point and you're not gunna see us spending that kind of money on one player

    Yeah, we will. JJ likes to spend, if you sell someone like Joao Mario he's gonna spend that cash.

    Sporting fans like to that their team is run differently than every other one. It's not.

    Rafa presented today.

    Overall we had a good transfer window. Sucks losing a long term player like Gaitan and a home grown stud like Renato but with additions like Rafa and Carillo, Benfica is in good shape.

    I'd say Sporting's team is probably slightly better but Benfica has the better coach.

    Nah, not a chance. Aside from Patricio, WC, & Adrien, I don't really see any players on their end that are upgrades over what Benfica have.
