A shorter stay than expected. Issa Kaboré, 23-year-old Burkinabé international right-back, leaves Benfica and returns to Manchester City after the early termination of his loan contract. This decision was taken by mutual agreement between the two clubs at the opening of the winter transfer market. Kaboré, who had joined Benfica for the season, was only able to play 7 matches, including 2 as a starter, accumulating a total of 193 minutes of play.
According to the Portuguese daily O Jogothe player did not participate in Wednesday’s training at Seixal and is now waiting for Manchester City to determine his next destination. His time with the Eagles was marked by little playing time, notably in the Champions League and the Portuguese Cup. The future of the former Marseillais is currently uncertain while awaiting decisions from his parent club.
