Benfica president statements
Roy Costa said in press statements: Mourinho joined a week ago, and he has not been time to work with the team yet, the problem was not in Bruno Lag; Rather, in its physical and psychological state, the fatigue is very clear, we started the season with ten days of vacation, something had to be changed, and for this reason I transported Bruno Lag, I was the one who dismissed Bruno Lag, I am very grateful for all the work I did.
On the salary of Mourinho with Benfica, he answered, saying: I am not even an exported to his salary, how much does his salary coach Porto or Sporting Lisbon? Did they ask him that? It is a valuable contract, but it is not higher than his salary to Roger Schmidt, for example.
Roy Costa pointed out in his statements: I am not concerned about winning or losing in the elections, I am here to win and renew my state, I think I did the work that led me to make this decision, I never rejected Benfica, even in the most difficult period in its history, and certainly not now.
