Benfica confirms Bruno Lage as definitive coach

The Clube da Luz sent a statement to the CMVM to take account of the change.

Benfica said on Monday that Bruno Lage will take over the team’s top team after leaving Rui Vitória at the start of January.

The 42-year-old coach, who was at the helm of B’s team, was the solution chosen by Luís Filipe Vieira, first of all, on an interim basis.

However, after two victories in two games already played, the emblem of Light reached an understanding with Bruno Lage to continue to the controls of the main formation of definitive form.

It is recalled that Rui Vitoria left Benfica and immediately accepted a proposal from Al-Nassr, from Saudi Arabia, where he will be opponent of Jorge Jesus, who was close to returning to the eagles.
