Exclusive Glorious 1904 - Benfica still on the hunt for reinforcements | OneFootball

As we enter the final days of the transfer market, Benfica is racing against time to find the last pieces for the 2025/26 squad. In this Glorioso 1904 Exclusive, our newspaper reports that the red and white management is still searching for a right winger, after already securing a big-money signing.

With that creative player secured, Benfica’s football management is now turning its attention to the right winger position. Qualification for the Champions League group stage, and the consequent influx of millions, has given the Eagles financial breathing room, and they will offer Bruno Lage the successor to Ángel Di María.

Among the various names referenced by Benfica, Carlos Álvarez is in pole position to join the Eagles. The characteristics of the 22-year-old Spanish winger are highly appreciated by the Benfica coach, who has already given the green light to sign the Levante player, something that could indeed happen.

According to statements from one of Levante’s top officials, the club has no need to sell. However, despite initial reports suggesting demands in the region of 25 million euros, Benfica believes it can secure Carlos Álvarez for a much lower fee, between 15 and 20 million.

Last season, wearing the Levante shirt, Carlos Álvarez – valued at 6 million euros – played in 43 matches, totaling 3,424 minutes. In total, the 22-year-old right winger scored seven goals and provided 12 assists, making him one of the main figures in the team led by Spanish coach Julián Calero.
