Andreas Samaris is one player who could be leaving Benfica this summer. The Greek midfielder doesn’t have a guaranteed spot in the team, with speculation is growing Middlesbrough are interested signing the player.
Boro’s interest is consensus in two Portuguese newspapers, Record and O Jogo, although they disagree in which stage the conversations currently are.
However, O Jogo claims that Middlesbrough have already tried to sign the player, but he rejected a move because he doesn’t want to join a club who are below Benfica’s level.
The fact is these rumours aren’t making the situation with Samaris’ future ideal. Both stories report that on his Snapchat, the player posted a video saying: “Enough! What else are we going to hear? I’m sick of hearing all this shit!”
Let’s see what he’s going to say after having his name in two newspapers today.
