Like Gilberto, Nino was Jorge Jesus’ nomination for Benfica

Defender Nino entered the radar of Benfica, from Portugal, which plans an offer to remove the defender from Fluminense. As well as right-back Gilberto, former player of the Tricolor and who is also at Benfica, Nino’s name was an indication of coach Jorge Jesus, ex-Flamengo.

The 24-year-old defender’s name gained traction at the European club after the serious injury of fellow Brazilian Lucas Veríssimo, a constant presence in the squad’s squad. The defender will have to operate the knee and will be out for a long time.

Internally at Laranjeiras, a proposal by Nino was already expected due to its valorization after the good performances and the conquest of Olympic gold in the Tokyo Games. The board does not speak in names, but plans to sell athletes to make cash.
