Bruno Costa Carvalho: Benfica should pay Porto star’s clause | OneFootball

Bruno Costa Carvalho argues that Benfica should sign Rodrigo Mora from Porto, paying the player's release clause.

Rodrigo Mora as a reinforcement for Benfica? Bruno Costa Carvalho believes Rui Costa should move forward with the signing of Porto’s young prodigy. It should be noted that, in recent days, the player has been almost certain to move to Saudi Arabia, to one of Al Nassr’s biggest rivals, the club of Cristiano Ronaldo and João Félix.

“Rodrigo Mora is the present and the future. At Dragão, it’s already clear: not even with Pepê’s injury did the kid become a starter. Porto doesn’t know what they have in their hands. Benfica cannot just stand by and watch,” Bruno Costa Carvalho begins, advocating for the Eagles to step in and rescue Porto’s gem.

At a time when, by all indications, Rodrigo Mora is close to becoming a reinforcement for Al-Ittihad, Bruno Costa Carvalho recalls other paradigmatic cases in the football world: “The solution is clear: reach an agreement with the player and pay the 70 million clause. Yes, 70 million, just as Real Madrid did with Barcelona when they took Luís Figo. A move that changed history.”

“There are ways to do it: an agreement with a bank and pay over three years or sell a defender for 50 million. What cannot happen is letting Rodrigo Mora slip away to Saudi Arabia at this age. That would be a brutal waste of talent,” Bruno Costa Carvalho continues, explaining possible ways the deal could be done.
