How about this? Pedro Sousa shares updates on Benfica star’s future | OneFootball

Shortly after Fabrizio Romano hinted that Benfica had received a proposal from Marseille for the signing of Florentino, there was a turnaround in the negotiations for the athlete. According to what was found, the reds have rejected the proposal from the French club.

The rumor was advanced today, August 26, on the Marcado Now program, where journalist Pedro Sousa, one of the panelists, stated that the reds showed no interest in the proposal made by Marseille, as it was a loan.

In addition, the same source also assured that the Gauls were not the only ones to probe Benfica about Florentino's services. According to Pedro Sousa, without revealing his name, he assumed that the eagles received a proposal from a Championship emblem, as well as from a team from Saudi Arabia, in this case Al Quadisiya

Pedro Sousa assures that Benfica rejected the loan proposal from Marseille due to the poor track record that Florentino presented in other experiences where he was loaned by the eagles, namely to Monaco and, later, Getafe, where he showed adaptation difficulties and few minutes of play.

In the current season, with the Benfica jersey, and after having played 45 matches in 2024/25, Florentino Luís - valued at 22 million euros - has only played six games: three in the Champions League, two in the Liga Portugal Betclic and one in the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira. In the 134 where he was an option for Bruno Lage, the midfielder scored a goal, against Nice.
