Luís Pedro Sousa, chief editor of Record newspaper, commented on Schjelderup's contractual situation at Benfica. According to the sports executive, the Norwegian winger is reaching a level that makes it difficult to keep him in Portuguese football.
Sousa believes it is very complicated for Benfica to renew Schjelderup's contract in the near future. The winger has been one of the main figures of the red side's team, which has attracted the attention of bigger clubs.
The Norwegian player arrived at Benfica as a promising talent and quickly became one of the most valuable players in the squad. His consistent performances have caused his market value to rise significantly.
This scenario places Benfica before a financial and sporting challenge, as keeping players of Schjelderup's caliber requires resources that the Portuguese club may struggle to guarantee.
