Expected departure, which still causes a pang in the heart…
As we reported in an article yesterday, the Argentine is leaving the Gym as a free agent. With his contract ending on June 30, 2022, the 29-year-old player, who arrived on the French Riviera in 2016, will not be extending his adventure with the Gym. He announced his departure himself on Twitter.
A few months ago, Nice Premium recounted Walter Benitez’s journey with Nice. The club’s words in the statement published by the club clearly reflect what the Argentine represents to Nice: “6 seasons, 188 matches, impressive consistency, and a wonderful attitude: farewell Walter Benitez and thank you for everything!”
The 29-year-old goalkeeper announced this morning his new club: PSV Eindhoven. As runners-up to Ajax Amsterdam in the 2021-22 season, the Dutch club will be competing in playoffs to enter the Champions League. Surely an objective for Benitez, who still has the national team in mind.
