The Legacy
Paulo Autuori took charge of Benfica for the 1996-1997 season, arriving after the club finished second the previous campaign. Despite the presence of high-profile figures like Preud'homme in goal and Valdo orchestrating play, the side struggled to overhaul Porto for the league title. João Vieira Pinto remained the focal point of the attack, though the team failed to secure any major silverware that year. This Olympic away kit was worn while the club navigated a difficult domestic landscape, falling short of the top spot in the Primeira Divisão despite the quality within the squad.
