Kaminski, 17 M€ and 5th in line in Benfica's attack

Dia de Jogo — jornal desportivo3 September 2026 at 18:52

Jakub Kaminski, the Polish winger hired by Benfica for 17 million euros, finds himself only in fifth position in the hierarchy of attackers for the red and white club, which has significantly limited his minutes on the pitch.

Bartosz Kubica, a Polish coach based in Portugal, was invited to explain the situation of his compatriot at Benfica. Kubica points to a misreading of the playing style as the main reason for Kaminski's limited use at the club from the Estádio da Luz.

This analysis comes at a time when the winger has failed to establish himself in the Eagles' starting eleven, despite the significant investment made by Benfica in his signing. The fifth-place position in the attack queue represents a drop in the hierarchy compared to the expectations created by the player's valuation.
