The Club

The Eagle and the Crest

An eagle above a red-and-white shield and a bicycle wheel: independence, authority and nobility, and a nod to roots in more than one sport.

Red and White

The colours of the founding days, carried on every Benfica shirt ever since.

Legends

Eusébio, the Black Panther, and Béla Guttmann’s side of the early sixties, followed by generations of idols in the red shirt.

Rivalries

O Clássico against FC Porto and the Lisbon derby against Sporting CP: together they are Portugal’s Três Grandes.

Talent Factory

The Seixal academy brings through home-grown players who go on to star across Europe.

More Than a Club

Supporters on every continent and a record-breaking membership: for millions, Benfica is a way of life. Carrega Benfica!
