Ball – I’m not happy at Luz and he can leave now (Benfica)

Nemanja Radungic, the 25-year-old Serbian winger on loan from Marseille, may leave Benfica this month, to put an early end to a deal that has been sealed until the end of the season. The player, Benviquista Sade and coach Nelson Verissimo have not made any kind of decision yet, but the Serbia international is not satisfied at Luz, where he has a kind of secondary role, and the desire to leave is no longer a secret at the club.

The winter market window has just opened and a lot could happen – Nelson Verissimo barely had time to observe the player who was injured in December and is now caught by Covid-19 – but Radonich’s future will mainly depend on finding a club to play, because in light of these Circumstances, Benfica will not close the door with difficulty, even because the intention is to reduce the team and there are even many options for the wings.

Marseille holds Radungic’s pass and is not showing any interest, at least for the time being, in the player’s immediate return, and neither the player nor Benfica can hold onto any contractual clause to anticipate his return to southern France.

By the way, Radungic arrived in Luz in high spirits with Jorge Jesus, but the former Reds coach rarely gave him a relevant role – six matches, three of which are only a start, and one goal. The option to buy the winger ticket will be eight million euros.
