Benfica president Rui Costa confirms João Neves' transfer to Paris Saint-Germain in a €70m deal, admitting the club couldn't reject the offer despite Neves' importance to the team.



Benfica president Rui Costa has confirmed that midfielder João Neves will be joining Paris Saint-Germain in a deal worth €70m. Costa expressed his sadness at seeing Neves leave the club, but acknowledged that the significant transfer fee made it impossible for Benfica to reject the offer.


“Yes, it's all done,” Costa said, confirming the transfer. “It's sad to see João leaving us, he's a top player and a top guy, but we can't reject a €70m package as of today. It's simple, we can't say no.”


Neves' move to PSG marks a significant loss for Benfica, but the substantial transfer fee will provide the club with valuable resources to reinvest in the team. Costa's comments highlight the reality of modern football, where even top clubs like Benfica must consider significant offers for their star players.
