Francisco Domingues shines at Moreirense, reflects on Benfica journey | OneFootball

Francisco Domingues was, for many years, one of the most prominent names in the red and white formation - now under Mourinho's watchful eye. Recently, the Moreirense footballer recalled his departure from Benfica and revealed that he had to follow a different path in his career.

In an interview with the newspaper A Bola, the young player who came through the Eagles' ranks began by commenting on his move from Estádio da Luz to Moreira de Cónegos: "I think it was the right step. Moreirense is a very good team, in recent seasons the team has always been well classified in the League and I have been playing, but I also worked for it, so it was the right step".

Asked if there was any resentment about leaving the Glorious, Francisco Domingues admitted the following: "Of course, a player who has played at Benfica for many years always has the ambition to reach the main team, but there are several paths to follow, and my path ended up being this one".

Regarding his move to a new city, the footballer stated that he adapted well to the new northern environment: "We lack nothing here, we have everything, everyone is very professional. In terms of the city, the difference is that here it is calmer, more familiar, which is positive. I have really enjoyed living in the north".

"I have really enjoyed it, I think I adapted very well, both to the place and to the team. My teammates have helped me a lot. I have also been open to it, but I think, clearly, it has been quite positive", said Francisco Domingues about his journey at Moreirense.
