The Lisbon "Benfica" club has officially introduced its new head coach.

The "Eagles" team will be coached by former London "Fulham" strategist Marco Silva.

He replaces Jose Mourinho in this position, who has moved to Spain.

M. Silva signed a contract with the Portuguese team until the summer of 2028, with the possibility of extending it for another year.

In the last season, the "Benfica" club did not lose a single match in the "Primeira" league but finished in third place.
