Benfica are once again linked with Trabzonspor and Turkish national team starter Ugurcan Cakir as the club continues their search for a new keeper for the upcoming season. Benfica first looked at a potential deal for the 26 year old a couple of seasons ago but did not move forward with a move at that time but with new manager Roger Schmidt looking to shake things up at the club, expect Benfica to have a new number one when the season is underway.
Trabzonspor are said to want €15M to move on from Cakir and Benfica are not the only club interested in Cakir with French clubs Marseille and Monaco also said to be in the mix for his services. Cakir has appeared in 159 games across all competitions for Trabzonspor in his time at the club and has kept 34 clean sheets. Cakir was in net earlier this year for Turkey when they faced Portugal in a playoff for a place at Qatar 2022.
