Farioli, Villas-Boas-Diogo Costa talks and a thought: “Living in the past…”

Villas-Boas challenged Diogo Costa to wear Jorge Costa’s number 2: “That was a very personal conversation between the president and Diogo. The decision will be made, and the club’s gesture is very important, but Diogo has the right to decide what to do. Wearing 99 is already a great responsibility, as is the captain’s armband, which is a legendary symbol of this club, considering all the people who have worn it. Diogo is definitely the person who deserves it, and we hope he continues to wear it for many years”.
