Pedro Sousa criticises Farioli: “Some never learn Portuguese” | OneFootball

In a recent statement, Pedro Sousa criticized Francesco Farioli, pointing out what he considers to be the coach's slow integration in Portugal, especially in terms of communication.

“You earn points when you try to speak Portuguese, or when you understand a question in Portuguese and respond in English,” stated Pedro Sousa, acknowledging some initial effort by the Italian. However, he made it clear that this progress, in his opinion, is still insufficient: “It's still not enough, and since he's been here for a short time, I'm not going to sugarcoat it.”

The criticism intensified when he compared Farioli's linguistic progress to that of other foreigners who come to the country: “There are some who speak in three months, in four, and there are others who spend their whole life here and don't speak,” he remarked.
