Jhon Durán is a Colombian striker, born on 13 December 2003 (age 22), and now with Benfica. He is still a young forward in career terms, though his price tag already belongs to a different conversation: his current market value is around £30m, according to Transfermarkt.
His most productive league season came in 2022 with Chicago Fire, where he scored eight goals in 27 appearances. That was the spell which gave his senior career a proper shape, showing enough penalty-box threat and physical edge to move him beyond the usual prospect category.
Durán’s path has since taken him to Benfica, where he is listed primarily as a striker. At this stage, the career is still being formed rather than settled: Colombia, Chicago and Benfica make up the clear line of a forward who has already moved through significant levels before his mid-twenties.
