"There will be news next week." When asked about Mourinho, Vieira said: "I am his friend. Who would not like to have Mourinho? [But] I have not talked to him."If he says yes tomorrow, he'll be here at the drop of a hat. Money is no issue for Benfica. Benfica are third in Portugal's top flight, seven points adrift of leaders Porto after 16 rounds.The club are also set to begin play in the Europa League knockout stages as the Portuguese side is set to take on Galatasaray after finishing third behind Bayern Munich and Ajax in Champions League play.</blockquote>
