Manchester City are close to acquiring Benfica and Portugal defender Ruben Dias.
Rubén led Benfica to captain against Moreirense on Saturday and scored one of Lisbon’s two goals (2-0). After the final whistle, the 23-year-old Portuguese hugged his teammates as well as his sports director Rui Costa.
“It was a very special moment for me and I think everyone understands why.”Dias hinted at Benfica TV.
“I’m pretty sure it was his last game. We regret letting such a player go, but I’m also to some extent to blame that he left us today. This is due to our lack of Champions League, as well as some things at our club lacks balance “, – said the head coach of “Benfica” Jorge Jesús.
The Daily Mail believes that Dias will fly to Manchester on Sunday and the £ 50 million deal could be finalized early next week.
