If Benfica hadn't sold any of their players, what kind of starting eleven would they have right now? In goal, there's Ederson, who joined City in the summer of 2017 for €40 million. The first name in the central defensive pairing is Ruben Dias, also sold to City for a staggering €71.6 million. His partner is Victor Lindelöf, who transferred to Manchester United in 2017 for €35 million. At left back, we can include Alejandro Grimaldo, who went to Bayer Leverkusen on a free transfer last summer. At right back, we can include Nelson Semedo, currently playing for Wolves, who transferred from Benfica to Barcelona in 2017 for €35.7 million. Our first name in midfield is Joao Neves, who was sold to Paris Saint-Germain this summer for approximately €60 million. And alongside him, I'm including Enzo Fernandez, who transferred to Chelsea for a whopping €121 million. I'm putting Joao Felix, who was sold to Atletico Madrid for 127 million euros in 2019, behind the striker. Before we move on to our attacking trio, let's continue if you've subscribed and liked. On the left wing, there's Jota, who was sold to Celtic for 16.2 million euros in 2022. On the right wing, Bernardo Silva, who was sold to Monaco for 15.75 million euros in 2015, seems like a good choice. Finally, for the center forward position, I'm putting Darwin Nunez, who was also sold in 2022 for 85 million euros.
