Benfica made a blunder and rejected Leeds offer thinking they would do business with Juventus
Anatoliy Trubin, the Ukrainian international goalkeeper at Benfica, has lost his starting spot at the Portuguese club and Ukraine remains in shock and debating the situation of one of their most important players, alongside Georgiy Sudakov. Journalist Mykhailo Spivakovskyi, in the football program 'TaToTake', revealed that Trubin's loss of the starting position was due to a series of strategic errors in the player's career, before and after arriving in Portugal.
But the most explosive revelation was not this: The journalist explained that the goalkeeper had, this summer, options to continue his career in the Premier League, particularly at Leeds, who formally expressed interest, but that Benfica rejected offers, counting on a transfer to Juventus, as they believed they could pocket between 30 million and 40 million euros from the sale of the player.
Another factor revealed concerns Trubin's contractual situation, as he has already received a proposal to renew with Benfica, but has yet to make a decision about his future. The goalkeeper's situation continues to generate concern both in Portugal and in Ukraine, where news about his loss of space at Benfica has caused a strong impact.
