Called to play the Copa América by the Brazilian team, goalkeeper Bento, from Athletico, is in the crosshairs of Inter de Milan. Vice-director of the Italian club, Dario Baccin admitted interest in the 24-year-old player.
In an interview with Sky Sport, Baccin recognized that Benedict is one of the promising of the position and that he is under evaluation of the Inter de Milan to the international transfer window, mid-year.
— Benedict? We're happy with the cast goalkeepers, but thinking about the future he's one of the ones we're evaluating. Much is being considered because of the call for the Brazilian team, but even if it is premature to talk about it, because it is one of the, two or three, young people we follow carefully — said Deputy Sports Director of Inter, Dario Baccin, in Sky Sport.
The starting goal of Inter is the 35-year-old Swiss Sommer, who has a contract until 2026. He did a great season, but the team looks for a name for the next few years and sees Bento as a great option.
Benedict, by the way, was once again the protagonist in Athletico's shirt this weekend. The goalkeeper defended Raphael Veiga's penalty in the Sunday game, against the Palm treesAnd he got compliments from Coach Cuca.
In addition, Bento was called by the Brazilian team for the fourth time, but ended up being injured at the first call. On Monday, he remained in the reserve bank, and acted as the holder in the games against England and Spain, in the third call.
Bento's last game by Athletico before the presentation to the America Cup Team must be against the FlamengoOn June 2nd.
