Alan Varela gave an interview to the newspaper A Bola. The Argentine midfielder, a key piece for the Dragons this season, praised the positive start to the new campaign and contrasted it with a 2024/25 marked by failure.

The team is doing very well; we’ve been showing what it means to play like FC Porto. This is also the merit of the coaching staff and all the players who are working to the maximum every day so that we can face and win every match,” said the midfielder, recalling last season.

Last season didn’t go well. It didn’t go well and we didn’t achieve any of the goals we had planned. It’s true it was a very bad year. But wearing this badge gives us even more desire to turn the page, to face all challenges, and to win as much as possible, as the club demands,” emphasized Alan Varela.
