According to Fanatik, Portuguese side Benfica is following Jens Hjerto-Dahl. The player is described as a Norway U21 star and one of the most important players for the Norway U21 National Team.

Benfica is monitoring Tromso's 20-year-old Norwegian midfielder Jens Hjertø-Dahl. The Portuguese club is competing with other clubs for the player. The Nordic channel TV2 reports that Germany's Hamburg and England's West Ham are among the clubs most strongly pursuing the player, and that there is additional interest from the Premier League. Last summer, Hjertø-Dahl nearly transferred to Besiktas, but he now wants to join a bigger club and will not move to Turkey. If Benfica decides to proceed, they will encounter resistance from Tromso. Tromso knows the midfielder's value and is asking for a transfer fee of more than €15 million. Hjertø-Dahl's contract is valid until the end of 2029, and he has 6 caps for the Norway U21 team. He has made 4 appearances in the Eliteserien in the 2025/2026 season. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €7.00m.
