Another Young Talent

Ivan Santos, former Boavista winger, has agreed to a deal with Benfica for 3 years. Santos, 19, rescinded his contract with Boavista and was lured to Estadio da Luz by Benfica.
Ivan Santos has been a fixture in the Portuguese "U" national teams. He had 9 appearances for Boavista last year in the Bwin, and clocked in another 10 in the Liga Intercalar.
Considering the amount of players Benfica has between the ages of 18 and 20, i'd say a nice foundation is being set, and the future looks bright.

DiMaria, Adu, Carvalhas, Fellipe Bastos, Urreta, Romeu Ribeiro, Miguel Rosa, Miguel Vitor are all players that fall in between the ages of 18 and 20.

Santos should be going on loan to another Liga Sagres team, in order to log the minutes he requires to progress and mature.
Santos will put black on white after the prerequisite physical on Monday.

Welcome and Best of Luck
