Benfica have always been known as a selling club, producing great young talents that are then shipped out for hefty fees, but can this be the year they also go for a far push in the Champions League?
Right now, they are second in Liga Portugal with 53 points and three points behind Sporting CP, but they have one game in hand that can put them level for first place as they take on Barcelona in the Round of 16 of the UCL.
In Kurosh Moghtader’s tactical analysis, we’ll look at Bruno Lage‘s tactics at Benfica this season, which have them pushing for a Portuguese title and possibly a long run in the UCL.
If they can get by Barcelona in the second leg, anything is possible, following a 1-0 defeat at home in the first leg through Raphinha’s goal.
The Premier League is a league of global talent, with scouts searching the European and South American markets for the next breakout stars.
These regions have become grounds for unearthing players who, with the right development, can be moulded into high-potential players before being flipped for sizeable profits.
However, while this has brought success, an increasingly overlooked market is the EFL Championship.
The Championship is one of the world’s most physically and tactically demanding leagues.
Its pace, differing tactical ideals between teams, and physical nature mirror many of the challenges players face in the Premier League.
It is a hotbed for talent and provides an environment where players test their doggedness and adaptability.
The league continues to produce players capable of competing at the highest level, such as Jarrod Bowen, Michael Olise, Ollie Watkins, and most recently, Adam Wharton.
It is a ground for players aspiring to make the leap to the rigours of the Premier League.
In this demanding environment lies Trai Hume, a player whose tactical flexibility and key role in Sunderland’s promotion push have placed him among the league’s most exciting full-back prospects.
