Return to Benfica? Florentino Luís drops hint about his future | OneFootball

Returning to Benfica is part of Florentino Luís's plans. In a recent interview, the former Eagles star talked about his adaptation to Burnley, Rafa Silva's return, and also recalled who he formed the best duo with when he wore the Sacred Mantle.

"Yes, I was happy for him and for Benfica, both will enjoy it", began the former Reds footballer when asked about the return of the Portuguese international, who aims for his first start against Alverca, the club where he was trained.

"Rafa is a great player who scores many goals and provides many assists and returning is something I would like for myself and my family in the future, because I have a lot of affection for Benfica", admitted Florentino Luís, in statements to the newspaper A Bola.

"Yes, we had a very good connection during that Champions League year. We went very far. He left midway through the season… It was easy to play with him, we understood each other very well, we knew what one wanted and the other wanted. We complemented each other very well", said the Portuguese, revealing that Enzo Fernández was the best duo of his career.

However, he did not forget the other teammates with whom he shared tasks in the Reds' midfield: "At Benfica, everyone was special, João Neves, Chiquinho, Enzo, even Samaris. They were all great players from whom I learned different things".
