Bayern Munich midfielder Renato Sanches 'bound for Benfica'

By Mark Langshaw, Reporter | 29 May 2018

Bayern Munich midfielder Renato Sanches allegedly gears up for a loan return to former club Benfica.

The Portuguese giants have entered talks with the Bundesliga champions over a short-term deal for the midfielder, according to A Bola.

Sanches is not thought to be part of Bayern's plans, having been shipped off on loan to Swansea City last season.

The 20-year-old is a product of the Benfica youth academy, rising through the ranks to their senior setup before signing for Bayern in 2016.

Sanches has 13 senior caps for Portugal.
