Warmer climes, probably a contract to the end of the season, then can take a look at what options are open to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Fresh Posted 12 January 2022 Share Posted 12 January 2022 If he goes Udinese, you just know he'll end up at Watford after they yo-yo a few more times and have a great performance against us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chocolate Teapot Posted 12 January 2022 Share Posted 12 January 2022 Really really hope he plays some football. There's obviously a good player there somewhere, where he'll be that for us is by the by. For his sake I hope he makes an impression. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Posted 12 January 2022 Share Posted 12 January 2022 https://www.goal.com/it/amp/notizie/udinese-visite-mediche-per-filip-benkovic-e-in-arrivo-dal/blt240cb96c0d6105a4 A few years ago, appointing Filip Benkovic would have raised the antennas of half of Europe's scouts, as it was one of the most popular talents in circulation in Europe. A Golden boy. Today the story is a bit different, given that the 1997-born defender hasn't played an official match for over a year. The Croatian, after signing with Leicester in 2018 - paid around 15 million to Dinamo Zagreb - was no longer able to express himself on the levels he had shown in his early years. Ending at the edge of the squad. His near future, however, will no longer be in the Foxes, but in Italy. According to reports from 'Sky Sport', in fact, Benkovic will become a reinforcement for the defense of Udinese. The player is already carrying out the medical examinations and soon the operation will be defined in all respects, up to the official status. For Benkovic this is a great opportunity to relaunch after having spent difficult years. Exploded in Dinamo, after signing with Leicester he lived on loan after loan. The first, at Celtic, was a success, but the following in the Championship between Bristol and Cardiff, until the last one at OH Leuven, were to be forgotten. Between physical problems and technical choices, Benkovic has only played 12 games in the first teams from the 2019/20 season to today, plus a few appearances with the second team of Leicester. This season he has only collected a few bench seats in the Europa League. In Croatia he had made his debut as an 18-year-old in the Champions League and in the league, but after leaving his homeland he never managed to establish himself. Right in 2019 he took away the satisfaction of collecting a presence in the national team. The only one. Now he arrives in Udine with the aim of relaunching himself.
