It's official. Benfica announced the signing of a training contract with the young goalkeeper Lourenço Luís, aged 14, reinforcing the Club's commitment to young talent and building a solid foundation for the future.

The goalkeeper, who arrived from Aljustrelense, is spending his first months in service of the Club da Luz. This season, he has played eight games for the youth team and was recently called up to the national under-15 team to participate in an inter-association tournament at the City of Football.

In the last game, the Benfica under-15 team thrashed Estoril with an impressive 11-0 in a delayed match of the third round of the Youth Championship Qualification Phase. After also winning the derby, the eagles continue their race for the title. Lourenço Luís was brought on at the 53rd minute.

José Mourinho, Benfica's coach, was a notable presence in the stands at Seixal. The coach has been taking every opportunity to take notes on the talents of the red emblem, with the youth team still young but very promising.

Currently, the team led by João Faria Rodrigues is in second place on the leaderboard with 14 points, two behind Porto (16). In the next round, Benfica will host Vitória de Guimarães. The match is scheduled for Saturday, March 21, at 11:00 AM, in Seixal.
