LISBON, May 23 (SW) - Quique Sanchez Flores has found a new employer. The Spanish manager will be taking the leads at Portuguese giants Benfica.

Sanchez Flores was fired by Valencia CF last season after a series of disappointing results, although the Spanish team began performing even worse after his departure.

Several top coaches had been linked to Benfica recently, such as Sven Göran Eriksson and Michael Laudrup.

Sanchez Flores, who will be signing a two-year deal, has reportedly been given permission to sign four new players.
