Gonçalo Oliveira is a 19-year-old central defender, an under-21 international, and captain of Benfica's B team. He has been training regularly with José Mourinho and has been called up to the first team, but has not yet made his debut. The Benfica board is preparing to sign at least one central defender, and potentially two reinforcements if Otamendi leaves the club. In this scenario, the young defender is expected to leave to continue his development. For Gonçalo Oliveira, the departure could be a sale, possibly with a share of the transfer rights, allowing Benfica to secure a percentage in a future transfer. Gonçalo Oliveira is looking for solutions to get more playing time next season, which is something he is unlikely to achieve if he remains at Luz.
