Pinto da Costa commented this Friday on the electoral race that is starting to take shape at FC Porto in April 2024, showing that he is not worried about the possibility meet face to face with Andre Villas-Boas and criticizes those who say they want him to leave the presidency.
Assuring that he will not have to “manage” Andre Villas-Boas’s public position in any way, Pinto da Costa assured that the situation does not bother him. “No, everyone is free to do this. I’m worried about Porto moving forward. And just like yesterday, the news that the IFFHS ranks Porto 4th as the best club in the world is what gives me peace of mind. The fact that the projects that we have long dreamed of are already being implemented is what interests me,” he concluded.
Faced with insistence that the situation could cause some kind of internal unrest, the Porto leader turned the needle. “For me, absolutely none. We know that there are newspapers and television channels that are very interested in my departure, but this is not only now, it was a long time ago. I have been president for over 1,500 days. they have been wanting to see me for a long time. far away, but they will have to wait sitting down, otherwise they will still have varicose veins,” he concluded.
