Rodriguez on his way out
Benfica's official website put out a statement that Cristian Rodriguez will not be a part of next season's plans as they failed to agree on common terms. The club have said that the player and his agent demanded exigent figures to continue, which was not accepted by Benfica.
The Uruguayan winger was a key player during last season's campaign and many fans will be disappointed in his departure. It is rumoured his future may still lie in Portugal with a rival club.
Porto move
Rodriguez has accepted a 4-year contract with rivals FC Porto and will continue to play in the Liga BWIN. The champions took the opportunity left open by Benfica to sign the winger.
