Carlos Correia says Sporting’s key man set for move to England | OneFootball

Carlos Correia, president of Mirandela and one of the first people to bet on Rui Borges, believes that the current Sporting coach has a brilliant future ahead in the world of football and will leave the Alvalade Club in the near future to coach in England.

"I knew him as a player and I was also his coach. It was clear that he was someone interested in football. I believed in him and I wasn't wrong. What is happening to Rui Borges is no surprise to me. It's his merit, as he knew how to rise through hard work, always surrounded by the same technical team… I bet on him because I felt he had potential," he told the newspaper 'A Bola'.

Regarding the coach's future, the confidence is absolute: "In two years, Rui Borges will be abroad, leading a top world team. In fact, I say more, I don't even give it two years to see Rui Borges abroad." The top official of the Transmontano club acknowledges that the coach is happy at Sporting, but reminds that in football, results can change everything.

"He's happy, yes, but football is about the moment and the moment is good for him now… if nothing comes up, a person can go from zero to hero and vice versa in an instant. I see him in England in the future. And he will achieve that, mark my words, I don't give it two years for that to happen."
