Marc Pubill was strongly considered to strengthen Benfica's defense, but his final destination will be Bergamo unless there is a surprise.

Benfica is interested in signing Marc Pubill, a 20-year-old Spanish right-back from Almería. Carlos Sureda, the player's agent, revealed that Benfica made an initial approach for the player's transfer. Almería paid about six million for 75% of the player's pass.

According to Record, Benfica has included him in their list for the next season.

Marc Pubill, a 20-year-old Spanish U21 international, is expected to leave Almería as the club prepares for next season after almost certainly being relegated to LaLiga Hypermotion. Pubill, who arrived from Levante last season for 5 million, is one of the most highly valued players in the squad due to his age and quality. He is a modern full-back, with a good physique and power, and contributes in both defence and attack. There has been interest from Benfica in Portugal, and from Milan and Inter in Italy. Although his market value is only three million, Almería is not planning to give him away and the initial negotiation price is around 20 million, although they might end up accepting a lower offer. None of the three clubs rule out the option of signing him and then loaning him out if he's not going to get many minutes. They positively value the fact that he can play as a full-back or as a wing-back.
