Benfica Agrees with Its New Coach

The reliable journalist Sasha Tavolieri revealed that Benfica has reached an agreement with Portuguese coach Marco Silva to take over the team's management in the upcoming period, coming from Fulham.

According to the source, Benfica's management finalized the agreement with the coach after successful negotiations, as Silva expressed a clear desire to return to his country and take charge of one of the biggest clubs in the Portuguese league.

The source added that the official announcement of the contract with Silva is imminent and is expected to be issued in the next few days, provided the final procedures between the two parties are completed.
