According to the source, Benfica will finalize the agreement with Shakhtar regarding Sudakov’s transfer in the near future. The contract will include a fixed amount of 30 million euros, as well as a bonus for the midfielder’s successful performance. Additionally, Shakhtar will receive a certain percentage from the future sale of the midfielder to another club.

Thus, Sudakov will become the most expensive acquisition in the history of Benfica, surpassing the amount paid for Kíchka (29.7 million euros, including various bonuses).

It is expected that today’s conference league match against Servette will be Sudakov’s last in Shakhtar’s jersey.
