http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valeri-Bojinov-c35853 ready to make his Sporting Lisbon debut, Luisao to break another record for Benfica
Sporting Lisbon forward ready to take to the pitch
Valeri Bojinov arrived at Estadio Jose Alvalade earlier in the summer after parting ways with Parma. However, the €2.6 million acquisition is yet to made his debut for his new employers.
The forward was expected to feature in the match against Beira-Mar over the weekend but an injury to defender http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alberto-Rodríguez-c4344 delayed his first match for the Lions even further.
However, manager Domingos Paciência is now likely to utilize his large squad and allow the 25-year-old to take part in the encounter with Nordsjaelland this Thursday.
Although likely to be a part of the starting line-up in the next match, it is still unclear whether Valeri Bojinov will be able to replicate his goalscoring feats for the Sportinguistas and repay some of the faith shown in him by the management.
Brazilian International to set another record at Benfica
The most experienced player in the current Eagles squad, Luisao, is set to make history once again if he dons the club colours in the match against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233.
Having recently shrugged off rumours of a switch to Paris Saint-Germain, the Selecao International then went onto cross the 300th game mark for the Reds and further cemented his position as one the club’s greats.
However he is still not seemingly content with his current image and will even more highly regarded when he plays in the UEFA Champions League play-off against FC Twente.
In the encounter against the Tukkers, Luisao will be able to take his place as the non-Portuguese player with the highest number of matches played for Benfica in Europe, something which even he could not have imagined when he made transferred to Estadio
da Luz eight years ago.
Although now the captain of his side and still performing as one of the best defenders in the Portuguese Primeira Liga on a consistent basis, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cruzeiro-c38870 man is entering the twilight of a highly successful career, which undoubtedly crowns him as
the greatest Brazilian ever to play for the Lisbon outfit.
