Ball - Rui Costa in contact with Ricardo Horta (Benfica)

Benfica’s interest in Ricardo Horta is not new, but the SC Braga striker has great admiration in the current president of the Eagles, Rui Costa, and the possibility of a move to Luz again is a possible scenario, especially at a time when Benfica desires it.
