Rui Costa He is the president of Benfica. The former player gave an interview to the official channel of the Portuguese club and made a revelation about angel di mariawho this season returned to the team. He anticipated that he wants to renew the contract for one more year (The current link expires in June 2024), but he also recounted situations that were not known about the Noodle.
“I’m going to reveal a secret: signed a contract a month before performing at the Estadio da Luz. There was a possibility that he represented Benfica last year, but Juventus showed up and offered a salary that we couldn’t get close to. And he had in mind to try the Italian championship after having been in England, Spain and France”, counted the leader.

“I heard he would earn €10m signing bonus plus €5m net annual salary. I’d be crazy if that was the case,” added Rui Costa.
And he went further: “He didn’t want to hear anything else from the moment he found out we wanted to have him here. There was a lot of talk then about what he would win at Benfica and I don’t think it’s fair for him. He arrived at Benfica without exceeding the salary cap”.
And I add: “Ángel did not want to know what the salary cap was. He knew what the maximums were and he did not haggle a single euro. His return was ‘I want to go back, what you can give me is what I will receive’. This man must be done justice and it is a joy to see the pleasure he has playing with this shirt”.
Excellent answer
