Benfica faces a significant investment to secure Echeverri's stay, with the young Argentine prodigy potentially costing the red and whites around 30 million euros. The club will have to open its purse strings at the end of the season if it intends to keep the player.
The forward, considered one of the rising stars of South American football, has sparked great interest from the Lisbon club. Marco Silva, the team coach, intends to integrate the Argentine quickly into the first-team squad.
Regarding internal competition, Echeverri will compete for a place in the starting eleven with Sudakov, another young and talented player who is also part of Benfica's sporting project. This internal competition could boost the development of both players.
