Palermo striker Abel Hernandez has turned down an offer from Benfica.

The Uruguay international admits he can leave the Rosanero this week.

"I thank Benfica and their President, but I prefer to wait for another offer from a different League.

"My future? Maurizio Zamparini told me that after the promotion to Serie A, he would let me leave.

"Do I want to quit Palermo? It can happen, but there's nothing to say I don't want to stay. We'll see what happens."
