According to various Portuguese press Benfica manager Ronald Koeman is very keen on bringing Jon Dahl Tomasson to Lisbon. The reigning Portuguese champions are prepared to go far in their attemps to land the Danish striker

His current club AC Milan is keen to hold on to the 28 year old striker, but Benfica are ready to test the Italian giants with a decent offer.

After Tomasson won the UEFA cup with Feyenoord in 2002 he moved to AC Milan on a Bosman free. He never established himself as a regular at Milan, he played 30 games last season for the Rossoneri in which he scored six goals.

The Dane played in the past for Køge BK, SC Heerenveen, Newcastle United and Feyenoord.
