Andre Villas-Boas has updated the team's salaries. Even without taking up his position at SAD, the club president has made a financial effort of perhaps 5 million euros to ensure that the group faces the decisive duels of the season, against Braga and Sporting, with the utmost calm.

The outgoing administration could have paid employees' salaries for April, but there was no money to meet the obligations at Olival.

Taking into account that the professional group cost 30 million euros in the first half of the year, the financial mobilization for the payment for April amounted to approximately 5 million euros.
