Update: fresh details emerge on talks between Benfica and José Mourinho | OneFootball

Hours after Benfica confirmed that it is in negotiations with José Mourinho, more news has emerged about the process involving both parties. According to what has been determined, earlier this afternoon, both the club and the coach have a meeting scheduled at the academy of the Reds, located in Seixal.

According to the newspaper A Bola, earlier this afternoon, September 18, the President of the Clube da Luz, Rui Costa, is already at the Benfica Campus, where he reportedly arrived around noon. He is now waiting for the arrival of José Mourinho who, the press assures, is already on his way to Seixal.

All this movement at the Reds’ training center follows the announcement made by the Eagles, in which they informed the CMVM that they were in negotiations with the former Fenerbahçe coach. In the same statement, the Clube da Luz explained that the process is close to being concluded.

On the other hand, the newspaper A Bola reports that besides the President, Mário Branco, who serves as General Director, and Simão Sabrosa, Technical Director, are also already at Seixal. In addition, the Reds’ team, which will face AVS on Saturday, has also started to arrive at the Benfica Campus, with Fredrik Aursnes being the first to show up.

It should be noted that Benfica’s football was not put on hold due to the departure of Bruno Lage, since, after the defeat against Qarabag, the Eagles are already preparing for the visit to AVS, in Vila das Aves, a match counting for the fifth round of Liga Portugal Betclic, which will take place on September 20.
