Benfica Secures the Future of its Talent Anisio Cabral
Monday 16-02-2026
Portuguese club Benfica officially announced the renewal of young striker Anisio Cabral's contract for an additional five years, keeping him tied to the club until 2031, in a move that confirms the technical management's confidence in his future and the team's long-term project.

The announcement came after the player turned 18, allowing the agreement to be officially completed following a prior understanding between the two parties.

Cabral is considered one of the most promising talents in the team's ranks, gradually establishing himself under coach Jose Mourinho, and has succeeded in making his mark despite his young age through impactful appearances coming off the bench. He scored a goal against Estrela da Amadora in a big 4-0 win and decided another match against Alverca by scoring the winning goal.

The 'Eagles' management seeks through this renewal to protect one of their most important future attacking projects, especially amid increasing media interest in the player's abilities and great potential, reflecting the club's strategy to invest in young talents instead of relying on costly transfers.

Cabral is expected to gain a larger role in the first team in the coming period, with the technical staff praising his rapid development, while fans eagerly anticipate his path with Benfica and his ability to establish himself as a key element in the front line in the coming seasons.
