Benfica, a club known for its sharp eye on future talent, seems poised to bring in another promising young player. Whispers from the football world suggest they are close to signing Nazif Inoussa. He’s a 16-year-old forward from Sweden’s IF Bromma.
This is not a sudden move. Benfica’s scouts have been watching Inoussa closely for over a year. They want to bring him into their renowned youth system first. The plan is to let him grow and adapt there. Before joining IF Bromma, Inoussa played in the youth ranks of another Swedish club, AIK. He has even made a mark on the international stage. Inoussa scored on his debut for Sweden’s Under-16 national team. That’s a strong sign of a natural goal-scorer.
Philip Berglund, the sports director at Brommapojkarna, confirmed that negotiations are indeed happening. He spoke to ‘FotbollDirekt’ about the situation. Berglund said they would make an official announcement once everything is finalized. This confirms the reports circulating about the young talent.
What kind of player is Benfica getting? The same publication describes Inoussa as a smart footballer. He’s known for being skillful and very fast. Most importantly, he has a strong “striker’s instinct” for finding the net. This potential new signing highlights Benfica’s long-standing approach. They continue to invest in young players. Their goal is to shape them for future success on the big stage.
