Sérgio Conceição admitted that his departure from FC Porto fell far short of the scenario he had in mind and made it clear that he has no relationship whatsoever with André Villas-Boas, the club’s current president.
Speaking to television, the former Dragons coach acknowledged that he had imagined a very different outcome for the end of his spell at the club. Conceição, who led the first team for several years, thus admitted his discomfort with the way his time at the blue-and-white side came to an end.
In the same interview, he also responded directly when asked about his connection with André Villas-Boas. Faced with the question, he was brief and unequivocal, assuring that such a relationship “does not exist.”
Sérgio Conceição’s remarks come at a time when the change in FC Porto’s leadership and the end of an era on the Porto bench are still being analyzed. The stance now taken by the former coach reinforces the idea of a complete break with the club’s current leadership structure.
Conceição stepped down as FC Porto’s head coach at the end of his cycle at the club. At the moment, the Dragons’ football team is coached by Francesco Farioli.
