The agreement between Benfica and Bruno Lage for the termination of the contract will indeed include the famous confidentiality clause. According to the latest information, the coach will receive the month of September, as well as this season's bonuses, but will be prevented from speaking about what happened in the last few weeks.

"There is an agreement. Bruno Lage receives the month of September and the bonuses. The assistants receive until the end of the season, but there was the issue of the confidentiality clause that caused some dispute", began Valter Marques, in statements on NOW, about the understanding between the coach and Benfica.

"Effectively, there will be a confidentiality clause, but Bruno Lage will always have the opportunity to defend himself if hypothetically in the future information that he considers false may come to public. Benfica gives him the right. As for the rest, if he wants to address everything he experienced in the last few weeks, he will not be able to do so at least for the next while", added the journalist from Record.

Last Monday, September 22, on leaving the Estádio da Luz, Bruno Lage revealed a conversation with Rui Costa about the process of leaving Benfica: "Behind me is the stadium of a great Club and what I have to say is thank you, for everything. What I spoke with the president, everything is fine".

In his stints with Benfica, Bruno Lage played 142 matches, winning 96, drawing 22 and losing 24. Serving the Club da Luz, the 49-year-old coach won four trophies for the reds: a National Championship, two Cândido de Oliveira Super Cups and a League Cup.
