After the match with Belenenses SAD, Jorge Jesús was asked to comment on Bernardo Silva’s publication on social networks, in which the former Benfica player criticized the work of Luís Filipe Vieira’s management in the recent past. The motto was for Jesus to tell “the truth” about Bernardo da Luz’s departure.

«For many years I never wanted to talk much about Bernardo Silva, because for many years he messed with me from the point of view of the coach / player relationship. For me everything is fine, now with the president of the club who helped him grow, who provides all the conditions for young people like him to go to better clubs, it is very ungrateful. The worst fault a man can have is being ungrateful. You can have different ideas, you can’t be ungrateful, ”argued the Eagles coach at a press conference.

“Sometimes he stabbed me for my left back position. What I’m going to say is the truth. I was the one who brought Bernardo Silva to the main Benfica team, I took him on the preseason tour. When we got to Portugal he asked me what his ideas were for him. I wanted to know if he played. I asked him: ‘Nico comes out [Gaitán] or Salvio and you play? I have the possibility to leave and I ask the man to let me out. I have a contract in Monaco where I can earn twenty times more than Benfica, I need to help my family and I need the man to let me out. I told him to talk to the president. This is the fact that Bernardo Silva left Benfica. It wasn’t because he put the left side. Everton have just arrived and have already done some training on the left back to learn. I am telling the truth after all these years because he was ungrateful to the president of Benfica, he did not know how to compensate for what Benfica and the president did for him, “he criticized.
