Benfica look to hold onto stars during transfer window

Benfica coach Jorge Jesus has made it clear that he has no intentions of selling any of his stars during the winter transfer window. Jesus does not want to weaken the club as they chase league leaders Porto for defense of their title.

The two names most often mentioned in transfer rumours from the club are central back David Luiz and left back Fabio Coentrao as the Big European clubs are knocking at the Estadio da Luz. Luiz and Coentrao could fetch Benfica $50 million Euro if they are sold for the clubs asking price.
