According to A Bola, Sidny Lopes Cabral's future at Benfica is uncertain, with his stay for the 2026/2027 season being contingent on the decision about the coach. The publication reports that if José Mourinho remains as coach, the most probable outcome is the player's departure. Benfica's SAD acknowledges negotiating his exit and prefers a permanent transfer or a loan with a purchase option, as the goal is to recover the investment made. More definite negotiations are expected after this summer's World Cup, where Sidny is a key player for the Cape Verde national team and his market value could increase. The player has already attracted interest from several clubs, which has led to initial contacts.

According to reports from Portugal, Greece is among the possible destinations for Sidney Lopes Cabral, with clubs closely monitoring his situation. Final decisions are expected to be made after the World Cup, which is considered an opportunity for Cabral to increase his value and attract offers. It is stated that if Jose Mourinho remains at Benfica, Cabral is likely to seek a new club. Dimitris Vasilakos, a journalist analyzing Portuguese football, mentioned that Mourinho does not count on Cabral and that he could be loaned out, as Benfica does not easily part with players.

According to Sportkrant Record, several unnamed Dutch clubs are interested in Sidny Lopes Cabral, and a return to the Netherlands is a possibility for him. The publication also notes that his price tag is around 6 million euro, which limits the number of potential clubs.

Sidny Cabral, a 23-year-old Cape Verde international right-back, is among the players considered more likely to leave Benfica than to be part of the squad in the 2026/27 season, if Mourinho remains at the club. Cabral joined the club in January 2026 and has a contract until 2030. This season in Liga Portugal, he has made 23 appearances, scoring 6 goals and providing 6 assists. His current Transfermarkt valuation is €5.00m. He has previously been linked with clubs such as Beşiktaş, Fiorentina, Sassuolo, and Lecce.
