Benfica’s partners will have a say, at the general meeting, on the particular elements of the SAD Board of Directors. This is one of the proposals made in the electoral manifesto of the “Server or Benfica” movement headed by Francisco Benítez. A board of directors consisting exclusively of “specialists in his ‘core activity’, football”. It appears, then, that with Benítez, if elected, Benfica SAD would reverse the model of recent years, where “only one of the elements [no caso, Rui Costa] He has a history and an approach in the field of football.”

“This board of directors should be reconstituted, appointing members with a different profile than has been established in the recent past. This appointment to management positions in SAD should always represent an advantage in sporting terms, selecting members with proven experience in the area of ​​football, And the combination of this experience and undeniable goodwill is an obligatory condition for candidacy,” reads the electoral program of Francisco Benítez, presented this Friday to the media.
