Nuno Lobo, a well-known associative leader and former candidate for the leadership of the Portuguese Football Federation, went to the Estádio da Luz to deliver an official request to Benfica's services. The document requests that the club's members can vote on the withdrawal of confidence from Pedro Proença, current president of the Portuguese Football Federation. Nuno Lobo wants the proposal to be discussed and voted on at the club's next General Assembly.
The initiative comes following the most recent episodes between the federation and the clubs, with particular emphasis on the release of audios considered controversial. The political environment surrounding national football promises to have strong repercussions within Benfica's associative base.
The proposal argues that the loss of the Club's support for Pedro Proença should extend to all companies in the red universe. The document also provides that the members' decision be formally communicated to UEFA and FIFA after the eagles' general meeting.
