Liga Revelação: Celton Biai received the best goalkeeper award

Celton Biai received the best goalkeeper of the regular phase of the Liga Revelação award. Between the sticks, the youngster's displays had an impact and prompted the distinction.

"This award means I've worked a lot, I achieved my goals and I would like to thank everyone that helped me and my team because without them I wouldn't have won this award. It's another motivation for me, it's good to know that I was the first goalkeeper of the Liga Revelação [to win the award] and I'll keep it forever in my career", claimed Celton Biai, in exclusive statements with BTV.

Celton Biai wants to follow in the footsteps of his teammates who managed to be promoted to the first team, but first, there is another goal to achieve.

"We are all working for the same thing. We have teammates who, last year, fought for the national title with us, Gedson, João Félix, Florentino, Jota, who managed to get there [Benfica's first team]. They had to work a lot, they are a huge example for us and now we have to do our journey, work hard to managed to get there. I'll soon have the o European Championship, but right now I'm focused on the U-19 National Championship, where I want to become a two-time champion", he guaranteed.
