“I dedicate part of Benfica to a new chapter at Newcastle.”

Bosnian full-back Dedic is on his way to England to finalize his transfer to Newcastle, marking a new phase in his career. This Sunday, the 23-year-old player left Tires, where he was captured in images revealing his farewell to Benfica, surrounded by fans and journalists waiting for statements about his departure.

Dedic, who remained reserved regarding media questions, ultimately shared a simple yet meaningful message for the fans: “I love you.” This statement reflects the affection the defender has for the Benfica supporters, who have always backed him during his time at the club. Now, the player is preparing to undergo the usual medical tests with the Magpies before formalizing his contract with the Premier League team.

Dedic's departure represents not only a change for the player but also for Benfica, which will see one of its young talents leave for a league regarded as one of the most competitive in the world. The impact of this transfer could be felt in the team's dynamics, as the full-back was an important piece of the squad, contributing both defensively and in supporting the attack.

With the transfer almost confirmed, the focus now shifts to how Benfica will react to this departure and what plans will be made to strengthen the left-back position. The club will need to find a worthy replacement who can maintain the level of competitiveness and quality that Dedic brought to his game.

Benfica fans, for their part, are eagerly awaiting more news about the next phase of their team, while Dedic prepares to embrace a new challenge in England. His journey at Newcastle can be closely followed as the player integrates into a new football culture and seeks to establish himself in the Premier League.
