“I’ve always dreamed of representing FC Porto” | OneFootball

After fulfilling his dream of signing for FC Porto, Ricardo Costa recalls an invitation that was “impossible to refuse” – “because I’m a Porto supporter and I love FC Porto” – and promises the fans “a lot of hard work and a lot of goals”. Aware that “grit can’t be missing”, the pivot, whose “love for futsal began when I was playing near home with my friends”, hopes to experience “an incredible moment” in his debut at the Dragão Arena and calls on the fans to fill the stands: “I hope they come and support us in every game, I’m sure there will be an incredible atmosphere.”

An impossible invitation to refuse“When I got the call, I didn’t even think twice. It was impossible to refuse, because I’m a Porto supporter, I have many family members who support Porto, and I love FC Porto.”

The commitment made“You can expect a lot of hard work – don’t doubt that I’ll give everything – and a lot of goals.”

Grit as an essential requirement“Grit can’t be missing here, all FC Porto players have to have grit.”

A dream come true“It’s a dream come true. I always dreamed of representing FC Porto and now I’m fulfilling that dream.”

The path taken in futsal“Interestingly, I started at Casa FC Porto de Rio Tinto and represented other clubs at youth level until I settled at ADCR Caxinas for seven years. I managed to earn promotion to the First Division in my first year as a senior player, and then I moved to Futsal Azeméis. I played there for two years, had a short spell at SCU Torreense, signed for Dínamo Sanjoanense, and now I’m here.”

How the passion for the sport was born“My love for futsal began when I was playing near home with my friends, and an official from Casa FC Porto de Rio Tinto invited me to go to a tournament with them. They liked me and kept me there; that’s when I started playing futsal and I’ve never stopped since.”

The message to the fans“The first game is going to be incredible, I won’t have words to describe it. I hope the fans come and support us in every game, I’m sure they’ll fill the arena and that there will be an incredible atmosphere.”
