Benfica rules out Bruma; Aris of Thessaloniki shows interest
Portuguese winger Bruma is out of Benfica's plans for the current season and is looking for a new club, while Aris Thessaloniki shows interest in signing him, despite knowing they will not recover the six and a half million euros invested in his transfer fee.
According to club information, Bruma is not in the coach's plans for this season. The management aims to close sales to balance the squad.
Aris Thessaloniki shows interest
The newspaper Record revealed that Aris Thessaloniki is monitoring the Portuguese winger and wants a permanent transfer. The Greek club acknowledges that it will not recover the six and a half million euros paid for the fee.
Marco Silva does not count Bruma in his projects and the player has been training apart. Despite this, Bruma has a contract with Benfica until the summer of 2028.
Bruma's current situation
Last season, Bruma was recovering from a serious injury, featuring in only three matches and not scoring or providing an assist. This lack of minutes highlights the player's marginalisation in the squad.
The transfer window in Greece closes only on 15 September, which gives some time to negotiate a possible agreement between the parties.
Thus, while Benfica seeks to complete its sales, Bruma relies on Aris's interest to find a new team before the window closes.
