Oooft. Cavani in that league? He’ll go nuts

 

[McCoistscoresforRangers]

Thought Leeds were in for him.

 

[Graham89]

Strange move that one

 

[Balogun1]

€9m a year for playing in Portugal?! Madness.

 

[Crouchy]

Really odd way to go out

Really odd way to go out

Be the guy who scores the goals that win Benfica the Europa League and you'll be considered a hero for the rest your life.

Leeds or Lisbon not much of a choice

Got to be Leeds then

 

[Leo_Ger]

He's better than the Portuguese league.

Ya arse

 

[Laudrup is God]

Brilliant signing for them he is a very good player one PSG will miss if the get injuries

 

[subversive_bear]

Benfica are a massive club and have an amazing stadium.

 

[Clubdeckg]

He's better than the Portuguese league.

Even at 33 he'd have his pick of clubs, cracking signing for Benfica

he's got to break the Bela curse though

 

[Forzapapac]

Cracking deal for him. Money in football is crazy

European champions, massive clubs, great climate.

And £9m a season. Weird one that.

 

[Walker54]

Where the %^*& are benfica getting that kind of money??

 

[BearAbroad]

£173,000 a week in Portugal, this sport is totally fucked

 

[MarkWalters11]

Benfica are a huge club and to be honest if I was him I would go there over Leeds.
He will score loads in portugal and will have a better lifestyle while picking up good money.
They also signed Jorge Jesus from Flamengo so this season will be a great challenge with Porto.

 

[Neilston Unionist]

Guy is an absolute shagger

 

[55 and counting]

Really odd way to go out

Benfica are 1 of the great European names. Genuine giant of a club. Leeds or Benfica? I'd choose Benfica everytime.

 

[Neilston Unionist]

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Was hoping he was doing to move to the Premiership or La Liga.

 

[club175]

Great move to one of the Biggest clubs in Europe

 

[MarkWalters11]

What’s that all about mate, is that Portugal as a frog??

 

[Sauchiebear]

Well suited to that league. Would have loved to have saw him at Leeds but think its was always unrealistic.

 

[Beanyrfc79]

Benfica are a massive club and have an amazing stadium.

Yip I don't understand the comments on thread.

Cavani prob doesn't even know who Leeds are. Benfica are worldwide while Leeds are just a club that if your grew up in the 70s in the UK you might have liked

I think ninety odd percent of the board would agree.
The only attraction might be the league.
In saying that, for me, there are only about a dozen or so “names” in the EPL.
Of course, that still beats the three or four in Portugal.
