Brazilian international on move to Benfica: Never | OneFootball

Pepê, international for the Brazilian National Team, stated that he would never play for Benfica. The player, who represents Porto and was sidelined due to an eye problem, spoke about the two great rivals of the teams he played for, mentioning the eagles and Internacional de Porto Alegre - just days after another former Porto player also commented on a possible move to Benfica.

Pepê, the Brazilian winger, was challenged by ESPN to take on a challenge where he would answer 10 questions with yes or no answers. The player talked about various colleagues, both past and present, until he reached the question where he had to talk about Benfica and another team from the Brazilian league.

When asked which club he would never represent, Benfica or Internacional de Porto Alegre - the two great rivals of the teams he played for, Porto and Grêmio, the Brazilian winger had no doubts about his answer: "Both, I would never play for either."

It should be remembered that Pepê joined Porto in the summer of 2021 and is already in his fifth season with the northern rival of the country. During his time in Portugal, he played 10 matches against the eagles - winning five and losing five - in which he scored two goals.

Regarding Benfica, it should also be noted that the eagles will make their debut in the Champions League this Tuesday, September 16, in a match counting for the first round of the league phase. The game, against the Azeris of Qarabag, is scheduled for 8:00 PM at Estádio da Luz.
