Attention, Rui Costa: Monaco cast their net at Benfica | OneFootball

Nuno Cesário is no longer part of Benfica’s technical staff - which has important information. The 35-year-old analyst is closing a chapter that began in the 2015/16 season and is preparing to embrace a new experience at Monaco, after nearly a decade serving the Club of Luz.

Throughout his journey with the Eagles, Nuno Cesário was part of the technical teams of Rui Vitória, Jorge Jesus, and Roger Schmidt, participating in different phases and sporting projects at Benfica. His departure was marked on social media, with a farewell message accompanied by an image of the national title won under the leadership of the German coach.

"Thank you for everything, Benfica. It was a pleasure. See you around", wrote the analyst, in a simple post, but one that clearly marked the end of his connection to the Club. The message received several reactions from colleagues and professionals in the field, recognizing the work he developed over the years, including Ricardo Rocha, assistant to José Mourinho: "Much success and thank you for everything, my friend".

Nuno Cesário’s departure comes in the same week that Pedro Barreiras also left Benfica. The physiotherapist, who had worked at the Club for 16 years, signed with Paris Saint-Germain, also ending a long association with the Eagles, at a time of adjustments in the professional football technical structure.

Still on the topic of departures, it should be noted that Benfica has made official the transfer of Ivan Lima, a young player who was once used by José Mourinho. Through official channels, the Club of Luz announced the departure of the 21-year-old winger, who is heading to Poland. This is the second departure, after José Melro.
