It was in 2018 that Frederico Varandas won the presidential elections at Sporting, at the time closing a very turbulent chapter in the Club’s history, which had begun with the infamous attack at the Alcochete Academy. He triumphed then over João Benedito, a former futsal player for the Lions, who finished second in the members’ voting.

Seven years later, Frederico Varandas is already in his second term as President of Sporting, after being re-elected in the 2022 elections. At the time, he won by an overwhelming majority of 85.8%, surpassing Nuno Sousa. He could become the first green and white President to serve a second term in 40 years.

Meanwhile, and especially during his second term at the helm of Sporting, Frederico Varandas has been accumulating titles, with the main highlight being men’s senior football. In that section, the green and white President has already seen his team win a total of eight titles, making him one of the most successful leaders in the history of the Alvalade Club.

Three national championships, three League Cups, two Portuguese Cups, and one Cândido de Oliveira Super Cup. This is Frederico Varandas’ record in seven years as President of Sporting, with further highlights, for example, for the renovation (and revolution) he carried out at the Alvalade Stadium, which is now practically complete.
