Scouting Report & Player Insights
Bruma is a pacey, direct Portuguese wide forward known for taking on full-backs and cutting in from the flank, a style forged through spells at Sporting CP, Galatasaray, PSV and clubs in Turkey. Now with Benfica in the Liga Portugal Betclic at 31, he offers experience, pace and dribbling threat more than a nailed-on goalscoring profile. His best years were built on explosive one-on-one running rather than aerial power or defensive graft. He remains a useful squad option who can change games with a burst of pace off the bench or in wide rotation.
Came through the Sporting CP academy and broke into their first team as a teenager.
Spent time at Galatasaray in Turkey, becoming a well-known figure in the Süper Lig.
Played in the Eredivisie for PSV Eindhoven.
Represented Portugal at youth international level.
