Maisfutebol12 September 2026 at 17:16

Benfica announced the signing of Martim Pereira, an 18-year-old centre-back, from Alverca. The player arrives on loan and will join the Eagles' under-23 team.

Martim Pereira is a young centre-back who represented Alverca before joining the red and white club. At just 18 years old, the player will make the leap to a larger structure in Portuguese football.

The operation was formalized as a loan, which means that Benfica secured the services of the young centre-back without making a definitive transfer at this stage. The player will work with Benfica's under-23 team.

Why this matters

This news is of interest to Benfica supporters and followers of Portuguese football, as it reveals the club's strategy of investing in young prospects for their youth teams. The fact that it is an 18-year-old player recently arrived from Alverca indicates the continuous monitoring of emerging talent by the sharp eye of the Lisbon club.
