Arthur Cabral Transfer from Benfica to Cruzeiro
Benfica is open to negotiating the transfer of Arthur Cabral in January to recover their investment. During the summer, they were reportedly willing to transfer him for €15 million, but no club made a satisfactory offer. Despite ongoing reports from Brazil indicating that several clubs, including Cruzeiro, Flamengo, and Corinthians, are interested, it remains uncertain if any club will meet Benfica's valuation in the upcoming transfer window. Arthur Cabral has been a secondary figure this season at Benfica, having scored only one goal in 12 appearances.
Cruzeiro showed interest in Arthur Cabral, but the player does not want to return to Brazil at this stage of his career.
Arthur Cabral, who arrived last year from Fiorentina for 20 million, is already on his way out of Benfica. Coach Roger Schmidt has discarded the Brazilian striker, and the club is working to sell him. Cruzeiro showed interest but backed off due to a 15 million euro asking price.
Arthur Cabral may leave Benfica just one season after his arrival. According to TNT Sports, Cruzeiro has been monitoring the situation of the 26-year-old forward. The same source states that the striker may leave the club if a permanent offer comes in. A loan scenario is ruled out by the club's officials. Arthur Cabral was signed at the beginning of the 2023/2024 season from Fiorentina, Italy, for €20 million, with a possible additional €5 million for objectives. The Brazilian striker participated in 43 games for Benfica and scored 11 goals and made three assists.
