FC Dallas reach agreement to sign Benfica striker Petar Musa in €13m transfer with medical already booked in

Major League Soccer club FC Dallas are all set to sign striker Petar Musa from Benfica, according to Fabrizio Romano. The American side have reached a verbal agreement on a deal, with the Portuguese giants set to pay €10m plus €3m in add-ons as a transfer fee. Musa will travel to the U.S. next week to undergo his medical before signing on the dotted line.

The 25-year-old joined The Eagles in May 2022 from Slavia Prague and in his maiden season, he won the Liga Portugal title. In the ongoing campaign, he has appeared in 25 matches across all competitions, where he has scored six goals, including five in the league.

Musa was a part of the Croatia squad that finished runners-up in the 2022-23 UEFA Nations League but he did not play his first international game until March 2023, when he made his debut against Wales in a Euro 2024 qualifying game.

After finalising the move for Musa, the Toros will look to compete with fellow MLS sides LAFC and Cincinnati to secure the signature of former Liverpool forward Divock Origi to further strengthen their squad ahead of the new season.
