Darwin Nuñez was not introduced by Benfica because he has not yet signed for Benfica.
However, there is a reason behind all this. And this has to do with the payment of interest and the solidarity mechanism. In the last hours, there was also talk about the involvement of Paulo Gonçalves in the business and he himself clarified More soccer how it came about and in what quality is it involved.
We go in parts. Darwin Nuñez traveled from Almería to Lisbon, spoke upon arrival, and even in Spain said that he had a five-year contract. Between player and Benfica everything is settled, however, it is not with Almería.
That is what is behind the delay and that is also why Benfica has not yet communicated any agreement to the CMVM with the Spanish club.
Benfica wanted to start paying for the transfer in August 2021 and that was what they agreed to. Almería consented. However, the Spanish club wants to have the money now and intends to advance it with a financial institution. In this sense, Benfica would have to pay interest and, therefore, a transfer of 23 million would cost more: this is a basically identical situation to that of João Félix. Subsequently, Benfica would have to pay the solidarity mechanism to the forward’s training clubs.
This is an issue that is believed to be overcome and therefore it is believed that Benfica should present the player this Friday.
It is not, therefore, a question of delay in the examinations, nor a question of commissions that stopped the presentation. And here we have to clarify the role of Paulo Gonçalves. The former legal director of the club incarnate is in this process representing the side of Darwin Nuñez, known in Luz for a long time.
TO More soccerAnd before his role in the process, Paulo Gonçalves said: «I confirm that I introduced the player, with his coach, last season. Darwin’s coach informed me, already this season, that Benfica was interested in the player and that Benfica was in direct contact with Almería. I confirm that I represent the interests of the player and the businessman.
