José Mourinho does not hide his admiration for the work the footballer has been doing. In this Exclusive Glorioso 1904, our Newspaper reveals that the Special One is impressed with the performance presented by Leandro Barreiro and the midfielder from Benfica continues to earn points.

Glorioso 1904 knows, from a close source, that the Luxembourg international, despite not being a regular starter, has shown that he can be an asset in Mourinho's options. At the same time, our Newspaper reveals that the number 18 has gained more prominence in the team after the recent matches.

As Glorioso 1904 explains, Leandro Barreiro saw his situation in the team change after the duel against Vitória Guimarães, where he was brought on at halftime, proving to be an important player for the dynamics of the eagles, who triumphed 3-0.

Thus, our Newspaper assumes that the Luxembourg international, who started against Leverkusen, will be a player to consider by José Mourinho in Benfica's next match, this time against Casa Pia. The match is scheduled for November 9, with only the decision remaining whether the athlete will start or come on during the game.

In his second season, Leandro Barreiro - currently valued at 15 million euros - has proven to be a reliable athlete. In the current season, Benfica's number 18 has played a total of 20 official matches. In the 670 minutes he was on the pitch, the midfielder contributed with four assists.
