Pablo Rosario is being hailed as a complete and dependable midfielder, with his progress at FC Porto drawing little surprise.

According to O Jogo, Cape Verde international Laros Duarte played alongside Rosario in the Netherlands when he first caught Philip Cocu’s eye.

Those who worked with him consider Rosario one of Farioli’s pillars, a status built on strength, vision and technique.

Duarte recalls that those qualities were already present when Rosario was very young, and that he looked a rounded player even then.

That background helps explain why his current influence in Porto is seen as a natural step by former team-mates.
