Mário Figueiredo says Benfica are on the brink of disaster | OneFootball

Mário Figueiredo analyzed Benfica’s current situation surrounding José Mourinho and Marco Silva, considering that the whole process is shrouded in great confusion and could bring serious consequences. The commentator also warns that the scenario could even be a disaster for Benfica.

“It’s going to be a disastrous coaching change for Benfica,” he said on the 'Now' channel, stressing the risks of a dual contractual situation involving the coaches. He also believes that the current scenario is complex and difficult to manage from an institutional point of view.

Regarding the origin of the problem, the journalist was critical of the way everything has been handled by the Eagles’ hierarchy. “In this process, nothing made sense,” he said, also recalling the renewal offer made to Mourinho in May, which ultimately failed to clarify the coach’s situation.

Mário Figueiredo also explained the impasse created by the elections at Real Madrid and the uncertainty surrounding José Mourinho: “If José Mourinho shows up, Benfica cannot have two coaches. And at this moment it has two coaches. It has one who has already signed a contract, Marco Silva, and it has one who is registered and still under contract.”
