Fernando Seara to André Villas-Boas on MP probe: “Careful, don't say that” | OneFootball

Fernando Seara criticized André Villas-Boas's statements about the opening of a Public Prosecutor's Office investigation related to the alleged bad smell in Sporting's dressing room, during a handball match in which Sporting beat FC Porto.

In his remarks, the former official and Benfica supporter said that the FC Porto president should be “very careful” about how he speaks about the case, especially after expressing confidence that it will be dismissed.

Seara stressed that, in his view, a statement of that nature should not be made, even with legal advice, arguing for greater caution in dealing with a case involving the Public Prosecutor's Office. The commentator also said that this confidence may be based more on “perceptions” than on concrete evidence.

In the same analysis, Fernando Seara said he expects firm action from the authorities in the following days, pointing to a “proactive” response from the Ministry of Internal Administration.

The issue comes after André Villas-Boas commented on the opening of the investigation, describing the Public Prosecutor's Office's intervention in the case related to the handball match between Sporting and FC Porto as positive.
