Since mid-January, he has played just two Bundesliga matches (58 minutes), though he did feature for 83 minutes in the Champions League round of 16 second leg against Atalanta. To date, Guerreiro has made 89 competitive appearances for the German record champions, scoring twelve goals and providing eight assists.
Benfica, currently managed by Jose Mourinho, would be Guerreiro’s first professional club in Portugal. The left-back, who was born and raised in France, began his career in the youth ranks at Blanc-Mesnil SF before moving to Munich via spells at INF Clairefontaine, SM Caen, FC Lorient and Borussia Dortmund.
Alongside Benfica, Juventus have also been linked with Guerreiro. Last December, Italian and German media reported that the Old Lady were considering the 32-year-old as they sought to strengthen their full-back positions.
