USA star Freddy Adu expects to start preseason training at parent club Benfica.

Adu spent last season on-loan at AS Monaco, but saw little action.

The young forward said in his twitter account: "In Seattle now. I will be at Benfica for preseason, but just a little bit late. I'm planning on being there within the next two weeks or less."

Adu also revealed last week: "I would love to go back to Benfica this year, but sometimes we don't get what we want.

"As of now though, I am doing preseason there."
