[p]Vítor Baía turned to social media to say goodbye to Silvino. The former Portuguese international and ex-captain of FC Porto recalled his former teammate and also former coach in a heartfelt message, in which he also evoked Neno, another iconic figure among Portuguese goalkeepers.[/p] [p]“It’s very hard for me to accept this news. He was my teammate, he was my goalkeeping coach, and he was, without a doubt, one of the best—perhaps the best—I ever worked with. But above all, he was a good man, loyal, generous, and someone I truly cared about,” wrote Vítor Baía.[/p] [p]“I am sad, devastated. Football has lost a great man. I have lost someone I will never forget,” he emphasized.[/p] [p]“Farewell, Bininho. May you rest in peace, in that eternity filled with great people, alongside our friend Neno… and so many others who left us far too soon!”[/p] [p]Silvino died this Thursday, at the age of 67.[/p]
