Hi, Benfica fan here.
Moreira first started playing for us at a very young age and had the potential to be our 'Casillas' not to mention Portugal's number one keeper.. He may be short in height but he made up for it in reflexes and passion. Even had the captain's armband for a while.
Because of injuries and our ever changing managers, by the season, played a big part in him becoming our number '2'.
I remember in the Champions League against United in 2005/06, he had regained the number one spot but an injury in that very game set things back again.
Legend for all Benfica fans, but he deserves a shot as he isn't getting any younger and we wish him all the best. Will definitely keep an eye on Swansea now!
From what I know, a great player to have in your backroom, always showed professionalism and humility.
