"I don't pay any attention to rumours. I have a great player, a fantastic professional. Someone who always helps the team, he did so [against Sporting] and over the weekend as well. He's a very important part of the team, and any situation regarding his future is discussed internally and not with anyone else."
"Guerreiro has a contract at Bayern until the end of the season, and it is unclear whether he will be offered a new deal. As a result, speculations are rife over his future, and reports in Portugal claimed that Portuguese club Benfica are looking to sign the left-back/winger in the January transfer window. Guerreiro has previously admitted to being a "big Benfica fan," and there are suggestions that it should certainly help him secure a move to the Portuguese club. Jose Mourinho apparently is a big fan of the defender, and Guerreiro is likely to get more game time under him than at Bayern."
Raphael Guerreiro has made eight Bundesliga appearances this season, scoring two goals and providing two assists, and four Champions League appearances with one goal. He is primarily a left-back but has been used as an attacking number 10 by Vincent Kompany. His contract at Bayern runs until the end of the season, generating speculation and reported interest from Benfica ahead of January. Jose Mourinho is reportedly a fan and Guerreiro has admitted to being a "big Benfica fan." Kompany praised his professionalism and said future matters are handled internally. Competition from Alphonso Davies and Hiroki Ito could limit his playing time.
