The full-back has admitted that he would like to take in another spell at Estadio da Luz, having been a lifelong supporter of the Primeira Liga club
Manchester City star Joao Cancelo has revealed his desire to return to Benfica before he retires, admitting "I am a Benfiquista at heart".
Cancelo began his career at Benfica back in 2012, but left three years later with just one senior appearance to his name, with Valencia snapping him up for €15 million (£13m/$18m) after a successful loan spell.
The Portuguese went on to join Italian giants Juventus in 2018, and became a Serie A winner in his first season in Turin before moving to City, where he has since established himself as one of the top full-backs in European football.
