Youth futsal kicks off at FC Porto | OneFootball

The futsal teams of the under-19, under-17 and under-15 categories of FC Porto began their first training sessions this week, held at the Basic School 2/3 of Viso and the Lagarteiro Sports Pavilion. The images were released this Saturday by the blue and white emblem.

On the official club website, André Pereira (under-19 coach), Nuno Guimarães (under-17 coach) and José Rolindo (under-15 coach) highlighted the "very important chapter for the club" and the "beautiful story that begins to be written", in addition to the feeling of pride common to all three.

André Pereira (under-19 coach)

"The feeling is very good, it's a very important chapter for the club and a beautiful story that begins to be written. I believe it will culminate in a successful project, as is customary for FC Porto. We had already done the recruitment of the players we wanted to hire for all the teams, but we held an open training session at the Dragão Arena for other players to spend time with us and get to know our reality, but we were attentive to any talent. Above all, each one's Portismo is a crucial point and, in this aspect, the technical teams were assembled based on that. We believe that we are building a successful project that will allow us to win titles."

Nuno Guimarães (under-17 coach)

"Being here means a lot to me, as this was a sport that the club aspired to have and is doing a lot of strong work. We are privileged to be part of this story and we will do everything to honor FC Porto. Promoting unity in a group that is all new to the club is essential, we have to create those bonds that are so important in a team and in a collective. We want to train the players in the best way, but we know that here we also always play to win. We touch a lot on the pride of defending FC Porto, there are many behaviors that we want to see in an FC Porto athlete and we will work on that."

José Rolindo (under-15 coach)

"Expectations are always high, we always want to honor the shirt we wear, but we will always give everything for this symbol. This is history for the club and it is a pride to be part of it. The Club's DNA is to win and it has to be that way, there is no escaping it. Now we are going to create the Porto player to start the season well, a season that we want to be full of victories," he said.
