Former Benfica centre-back Sérgio Nunes expressed support for José Mourinho staying on, who has been criticised, as head coach of the Club of Light. In his view, stability within the Eagles’ badge is essential to ensure better sporting results.

Speaking to the newspaper 'A Bola', the former player highlighted the coach’s ability and has no doubts about his staying: "Mourinho has the ability and is the ideal person to continue leading Benfica," he told the newspaper 'A Bola'.

Sérgio Nunes believes that success depends above all on continuing the work already done: "Solidity and continuity, not only with Mourinho but also with most of the squad, will provide the stability that brings results."

Finally, he addressed the relationship between the coach and the board led by Rui Costa, ruling out any scenario of conflict: "There seems to be trust between Rui Costa and Mourinho. When people trust each other, with one year left on the contract, there is no need for change."
