Official: Benfica agree new deal with talent highly rated by José Mourinho | OneFootball

It’s official: Arnas Voitinovicius has agreed to renew his contract with Benfica. Entering his third season at the Clube da Luz, the goalkeeper, who has already taken part in a training session with the first team under the guidance of José Mourinho, expressed great satisfaction with this step in his career.

“It’s a good step, now it’s time to keep going,” said the 19-year-old, who has been a regular feature in Benfica’s youth ranks, particularly with the Eagles’ under-23 team, which competes in the Liga Revelação.

Speaking to BTV moments after signing his new contract with the Reds, the young goalkeeper once again emphasized that he made the right decision, offering high praise for the club: “It’s a great club and, for me, this step is very important.”

“The experience has been very good, it’s very different from Lithuania. I’ve been here for two years now and I feel very good at Benfica,” added the 19-year-old, one of the standouts in Benfica’s youth setup in recent years, especially in the 2024/25 season, in which he helped win the Taça Revelação.

“It’s going very well. I’m training with the B team and I feel good. I’m also playing, I have many games and I feel I’m improving. Of course the goal is to reach the first team, play there, but this is a step forward,” concluded Arnas Voitinovicius, after renewing with Benfica.
