Conceição on Porto exit: “week of abuse” and Villas-Boas contract line | OneFootball

Sérgio Conceição admitted, in an interview with TVI/CNN, that his departure from FC Porto still weighs on him and that there is no relationship whatsoever between him and Villas-Boas.

“The way I would have liked to leave FC Porto certainly would have been different, and I have to express how I feel. But it also wasn’t easy. There was the end of an extremely important cycle in FC Porto’s history, that of our president for 42 years, the most decorated president in the world. Everything that happened that week of humiliation, with so much criticism of Sérgio Conceição, was not because Sérgio didn’t want to leave and was clinging to a contract. The first thing I told president André Villas-Boas was that that contract was not valid,” he said.

When asked whether he currently has any relationship with Villas-Boas, FC Porto’s president, he replied without hesitation: “No.”

Sérgio Conceição left FC Porto on June 3, 2024, bringing to a close a spell of seven years and 11 trophies. The following day, FC Porto officially announced his departure.
