The usual starter on Benfica's right flank, Alexander Bah, suffered an injury that will take him out of the red team's coach's options for the upcoming matches, thus opening a vacancy in the team's defensive sector. The Danish international's absence has sparked strong debate about the available solutions in the squad for the upcoming challenges.
João Malheiro intervened in the discussion to argue that Daniel Banjaqui should be the bet to replace Bah. On his Facebook account, Malheiro wrote that the young right-back, a World Champion at under-17 level, could be called up to the starting lineup at Benfica.
Native of Lisbon, Banjaqui took his first steps in football at Real SC, having moved to Benfica in 2018. The young player was trained at Seixal's academy and has been highly praised by António Oliveira, which reinforced Malheiro's confidence in his bet.
