João Diogo Manteigas urges big change in Benfica elections: "Abnormal" | OneFootball

There is just over a month left until the Benfica elections, scheduled for October 25th. However, João Diogo Manteigas, a presidential candidate, states that they should be postponed to the following day, considering that the team will host Arouca at Estádio da Luz, which could interfere with the electoral process.

"The Benfica elections are scheduled for the 25th, which is unusual and the date should be changed to the 26th. I hope the president of the General Assembly takes this into consideration, because on the 25th there is a Benfica game at the Stadium and, logistically, it's a chaos," the candidate said on the NOW channel.

Next, João Diogo Manteigas warned about the difficulty in organizing the event, making an appeal: ", Dr. Pereira da Costa, to think about this".

That is why I am running".

The event João Diogo Manteigas refers to is Benfica's match - which has already confirmed negotiations with Mourinho - against Arouca on October 25th.
