Several top Premier League clubs are monitoring Daniel Banjaqui, a 17-year-old Benfica defender. Intermediaries have recently informed Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea of his situation, while Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Tottenham are also being kept informed. Previously, Bayern Munich and Barcelona were reportedly the main clubs pursuing him, and it is understood they have already held discussions regarding a potential deal. Banjaqui has one year left on the contract he signed in 2024, and negotiations with Benfica over a new long-term agreement have so far failed to reach a breakthrough. If a new deal is not secured soon, the likelihood of a summer transfer will increase significantly.
