An excellent move for the Portuguese giants.
Details: Today, Benfica Lisbon's official page on social network X announced that 31-year-old French centre-back Clément Lenglet has officially joined the club.
It is reported that Benfica's management convinced Atlético to terminate Lenglet's contract free of charge, allowing the Frenchman to join the Lisbon side as a free agent in 2027. Before that, Lenglet will spend a season on loan.
Last season, Lenglet made 24 appearances for "Los Colchoneros," providing one assist. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is estimated at 4 million euros.
