Benfica end talks for Bento, looking at Madrid keeper

Benfica are said to have ended talks with Brazilian club Athletico Paranaense about acquiring keeper Bento, due to the high demands that the South American club has brought into the negotiations between the two sides.

Benfica still want to add an experienced keeper to back up and push current starting keeper Vlachodimos and the latest keeper on the clubs radar is Real Madrid back up Andriy Lunin.

The 24 year old Ukraine international has been in the back up role with Madrid for the past three seasons, only appearing in 17 games across all competitions. Benfica are said to have inquired about Lunin's availability with their Spanish neighbours.
