Francesco Farioli acknowledges the interest in Ángel Alarcón, but intends to keep him, just like Dominik Prpic. The Italian coach spoke to journalists in the preview of the trip to Guimarães for the championship. FC Porto and V. Guimarães face each other at 8:30 pm in the 18th round of the League.
“Regarding Prpic, it’s very clear. Dominik arrived very young and without great expectations. In reality, thanks to his quality and hard work, he has made the most of every opportunity he’s had. In the hierarchy of center backs, nothing has changed; what has changed is our confidence in his work. His progress has been good and he takes advantage of every chance. He’s a very coachable player, with a great spirit. He will certainly play his part in the next six months.”
“Ángel is an example of someone who didn’t start the season well. When the transfer window closed, I spoke about our expectations for him, and he set an example of how to react. He has shown fantastic development, has come on in several games, and helped the team. He will develop with both the A and B teams and we’ll see what happens in the coming days. He has a good market; I’ve received many calls and a lot of interest in him. My wish is to keep him with us, because I think he can help us a lot in the next period.”
