"Now that all the names have been presented, the choice Benfica faces is simple and historic: we can continue to manage the past or we can build the future. We can continue to lament what was lost or believe in what we still have to gain. We choose the future, the work, and Benfica. And I promise you one thing: leadership will never be lacking, conviction will never be lacking, and the Benfica spirit will never, ever be lacking because Benfica is more than a club, it is the responsibility of a lifetime, a mission, and that mission begins today. For a united Benfica, for a respected Benfica, and a Benfica that dreams again of its own greatness, just like that group of 28 young people who in 1904 believed they could create something greater than themselves. For Benfica Above All, for Sport Lisboa e Benfica. Long live the Glorious."
