Farioli: Fofana was Ligue 1’s best, he’ll be key for us

Francesco Farioli was present at the press conference after the 1-1 draw between FC Porto and Sporting, regarding the 21st round of the Primeira Liga. Among the topics discussed, the Dragons' coach referred to Seko Fofana's debut, offering various compliments:

“I was not the one who discovered the player he is. He was already the best player in Ligue 1. He is a leader, someone who combines top physical attributes with good technical skills. He contributes offensively. And he will certainly be a key player for us, to help us evolve. We have many games ahead and he, as well as all the others, is here to help the team and the club. Today he did very well, had a very important contribution. Now it’s time to recharge and move forward.”
