Perhaps the standout player in an experienced Cabo Verde squad in terms of quality is Benfica full-back Sidny Lopes Cabral. The 23-year-old Dutch-born defender, who can play as a winger, made his Cabo Verde debut back in 2023 as a Rot Weiss-Erfurt player before going on to play for Viktoria Cologne and then Estrela da Amadora, earning himself a move to the Portuguese giants of Benfica in January, forming a part of Jose Mourinho’s squad that went unbeaten through the Liga Portugal campaign.
