Benfica will not be able to count on a Ukrainian in a transferred match because of the rules of Primeira.

The reason – Sudakov was not registered in Benfice at the time when the match was initially planned. In August, during the first round, the Ukrainian still advocated Shakhtar, so he could not formally declare to participate in that match.
Thus, according to the League Rules, Sudakov has no right to go to the field against RIU Ave.
The match will take place on September 23 at 22:15 Kyiv time.
We will remind that Sudakov joined Benfika at the end of the summer transfer window, moving from the miner on the rights of lease with compulsory redemption.
