As President of Sport Lisboa e Benfica, I would like to express my deep pride in the democratic vitality of our Club.

Sport Lisboa e Benfica and its members have once again fully demonstrated their unparalleled greatness – in Portugal and around the world.

We set a new world record on an intense day of democracy, pluralism, and respect for the history and values of Sport Lisboa e Benfica.

It was also a day of unparalleled professionalism and passion for the Club on the part of all employees, who made it possible for such an extraordinary electoral event to take place with unforgettable fairness and exemplarity.

On behalf of myself and the Board that I have the honor of leading, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all Members, all candidates, and everyone involved in this election, which will forever remain one of the most memorable moments in the history of Sport Lisboa e Benfica.
