Portuguese club Benfica has entered the race to sign Atlas Lion Brahim Diaz from Real Madrid during the current summer transfer window, despite the challenge posed by coach Xabi Alonso’s desire to keep the Moroccan international.
According to CNN Portugal, Benfica is interested in Diaz for his technical and physical qualities, which the club sees as crucial for next season.
The report said the Lisbon side sounded out Real Madrid to gauge their willingness to sell the remainder of the forward’s contract but found the deal difficult to conclude quickly, as Diaz himself wants to continue with the Spanish champions.
Meanwhile, Spanish outlet Estadio Deportivo reported that Portuguese coach José Mourinho has also placed Diaz on his list of transfer priorities to strengthen Turkish club Fenerbahçe in summer 2025, as part of his plans to restore the team’s continental prominence.
