In 2007, Amorim appeared in the 2007 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship in Holland, representing Portugal's under-21s. During this period, several clubs showed interested in his services, but he insisted on not leaving, with Belenenses also rejecting bids from SL Benfica, SC Braga, FC Porto, Schalke 04, Tottenham Hotspur and Toulouse FC.
In late April 2008, Amorim signed a four-year deal with Benfica, after his Belenenses link ran out. During his first season, he was an undisputed starter, scoring his first goal with the Reds on November 23, in a 2-0 win at Académica de Coimbra.
