André Villas-Boas drops bombshell on Benfica pillar: we texted | OneFootball

André Villas-Boas recently spoke, in comments to the Spanish press, about the work he has been carrying out as Porto president. Among the various questions raised, the official was confronted with the possibility of seeing José Mourinho manage the Dragons and made a revelation regarding the coach of Benfica.

"Porto and its fans had the opportunity to pay tribute to José Mourinho when he left Fenerbahçe, before signing for Benfica, our great rival," André Villas-Boas began, in comments to Marca newspaper, when asked about the institutional relationship with the Special One.

"I think that was important. At the moment he is Benfica's coach and from time to time we exchange messages, respecting our clubs, because we are fighting for the same objective, the league title," concluded the Porto president, revealing that he still maintains a certain level of contact with the 63-year-old coach.

"I always wanted to have a short career and I coached for 13 years. In the last few I was preparing myself for the elections at Porto: finalising the programme, organising my team... It was really exciting," added André Villas-Boas, revealing that he does not plan to return to the dugout in the near future.
