Tiago Gouveia is already in France, however, only today, August 31, did Benfica confirm the transfer of the number 47 to Nice. Through the official platforms, the Clube da Luz revealed the terms of the deal and shared a summary of the young Portuguese player's time with the Sacred Mantle.

In the statement released by the eagles this morning, the club explained that Gouveia went to France on loan from Clube da Luz: “Sport Lisboa e Benfica informs that it has reached an agreement with OGC Nice, from France, for the loan of player Tiago Gouveia. The loan agreement is valid until the end of the 2025/26 season and includes a purchase option.”

Tiago Gouveia - who revealed some sadness at the time of farewell - joined Benfica in the 2017/18 season, at just 16 years old, eventually completing the rest of his training at Seixal. He progressed through the ranks of Juveniles, Juniors, the Under-23 team, until reaching the secondary squad of the eagles.

His debut for the main squad happened in the 2021/22 season. Precisely on April 30, 2022, Tiago Gouveia was brought on during the match against Marítimo, counting for the 32nd round of the Championship, where the eagles triumphed 1-0. Two rounds later, at the end of the League, the now former number 47 made his first start in the 2-0 victory of Benfica against Paços de Ferreira.

After a loan during the 2022/23 season, Tiago Gouveia was a regular presence in the main squad of the eagles, however, he never had enough opportunities to establish himself with the eagle on his chest. After 8 years of connection, the young winger leaves Clube da Luz with 40 official matches and five goals scored for Benfica.
