Aberdeen 'agree six-figure fee' for Benfica striker Luis Lopes

Aberdeen 'agree six-figure fee' for young Benfica striker

ABERDEEN have agreed a six-figure fee to sign Benfica striker Luis Lopes, according to a report.

The 22-year-old is said to be on his way to Pittodrie to sign a three-year contract. 

Press and Journal report that Jim Goodwin's side will fork out £300,000 to secure the Cape Verde attacker's services.

Aberdeen certainly need reinforcements to spearhead their attack, with only Christian Ramirez and Bojan Miovski as the recognised first team strikers currently.

Having already pocketed £4million for Calvin Ramsay, the Dons will also soon have a £2million plus add-ons for Lewis Ferguson.

It looks like they're preparing to reinvest some of that cash by signing Lopes.

Benfica are said to have included a decent sell-on fee as part of the deal.
