    That's great news! Hopefully Benfica can have the same success the Yankees have had, not just on the field, but off. The Yankees are a great club for Benfica to model themselves after.

    Both Benfica and the Yankees have large contracts with adidas, so that could help them reach a deal.

    Is www.record.pt free, or do I have to pay a subscription? They ask me for my member name and password to read the stories.
