Torino missed the deadline to activate the option to buy Rafael Obrador, set at 9 million euros and valid until May 31, but continues to be interested in securing the left-back of Benfica in definitive terms for a lower value, they guarantee in Italy. The 22-year-old left-back has made 17 games, 1 goal and 3 assists since arriving in Italy on loan in January. Obrador has more interested parties and the player may leave for similar or higher values, they believe in Benfica. Real Madrid maintains the right to 50% of the profit from a future transfer. Benfica signed Obrador from Real Madrid at the start of last season, for five million euros, at the same time as they sold to the merengues the pass of Álvaro Carreras for 50 million. Despite being a frequent under-21 international, Obrador did not shine at Luz — only one official game, 67 minutes on the pitch. He was not a bet of Bruno Lage, nor of José Mourinho.
