Glorioso 1904 exclusive - Moniz on Benfica's winger: Bring in Di María | OneFootball

Carlos Alberto Moniz suggested the name of Ángel Di María to strengthen Benfica’s wing. In this Exclusivo Glorioso, the well-known Benfica supporter spoke about the arrival of Clément Lenglet, discussed the transfer market, gave his opinion on Marco Silva, and commented on the Eagles’ ambition for the 2026/27 season.

“Lenglet? As far as I know and from what I’ve heard, he will be a good player. He needs to understand that Benfica is not an institution to be taken lightly, it is a serious institution,” he began by telling our newspaper about the new signing at the Luz.

Asked about the summer market, the maestro suggests strengthening the full-back positions and signing Ángel Di María for the winger role. “We have a good squad. If it’s to sign players, it would be to find backups for Samuel Dahl and Alexander Bah, in case one of them gets injured. Winger? Bring Di María”, he stressed.

Marco Silva is having his first moments at the club in red and Carlos Alberto Moniz said he was confident that the former coach of Estoril, Sporting, Olympiacos, Hull City, Watford, Everton and Fulham will be successful at the Cathedral. “He has already been announced. We must trust and support him”, he said.

At the conclusion of the interview, the Benfica supporter backed the idea of winning the Europa League, a competition in which Benfica reached three finals and lost them all (Anderlecht - 1982/83 / Chelsea - 2012/13 and Sevilla - 2013/14). “Benfica has to aim to win every competition it plays in”, he concluded.
