Latest Fantasy Rumors
Eagles looking at him
Beste could move to the Premier League and join Crystal Palace in 2025, according to BBC.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old Benfica winger is under contract with the Portuguese giants, but his recent displays, particularly in the Champions League, are catching the eye of several teams in the top European leagues. It seems Palace have moved quicker than other teams and could make a switch for the German, who has two assists in 16 matches between the Primeira Liga and the UCL in 2024/25.
