The best supported club in the country, Benfica were formed in 1904 and play their home matches at the Estadio da Luz, which was built for the Euro 2004 tournament which Portugal hosted. The club have an estimated fan base of approximately 14 million supporters around the world, which explains why at UKSoccershop they is a consistently high demand for official Benfica merchandise and soccer clothing. Each year, we look to increase the range of products we have available.

Benfica are the most successful club in Portugal domestically and have also won two European Cups – in 1961 and 1962. Their most famous player is the legendary striker Eusebio, who inspired the club to their European trophies and is their all-time leading goalscorer. Even with the emergence of Cristiano Ronaldo, Eusebio remains arguably the most iconic Portuguese star of all time.

Official Adidas Benfica Home & Away Shirts

Benfica play in distinctive red home shirts, which are completed with red shorts and white socks. The club’s crest features an eagle and the club’s initials S.L.B. At UKSoccershop, you can customise your Benfica jersey by adding official shirt printing. You can choose your own name and number, or any of the players to have played for Benfica – both current stars and legends such as Eusebio.

Throughout the years, the club have worn a number of different coloured away shirts. One of the most memorable was in 2002-2003, when they wore a gold strip which was one of our best selling Benfica away kits since we started trading. White has also been a commonly used colour, but in recent years, darker colours such as black have proven to be very popular choices as the alternate kit.

Benfica Football Shirt History

The first commercial Benfica soccer jerseys were manufactured in 1977. Until then, supporters had not been able to buy the official replica kit, but that is a far cry from today when the jerseys are available in every size you can think of!  The first kit partnership was with Benfica and lasted for 13 seasons between 1977 and 1990, before Hummel took over the contract in 1990.

During this period, they had a number of sponsors, the most notable of whom was Shell. In 1994, the club changed both shirt and kit partnerships once again with Olympic manufacturing the shirts until 1997 when Adidas regained the contract. In 2001-02, Vodafone began their sponsorship of the kits before being replaced by Portugal Telecom (PT) in 2005.

Adidas have been the primary partners of the Benfica jerseys. In 2014, they extended their previous ten year partnership through until the end of the 2020-2021 season. The following year, the club signed their most lucrative sponsorship deal to date with Emirates signing a 3 year deal worth 30 million Euros which would last until 2018.
