Anyone who closely follows social media will already have noticed that the name of Sérgio Conceição is often pointed to by a certain faction of FC Porto fans as the future president of the blue-and-white club. Even so, the coach does not believe that will happen anytime soon.
“I don’t think about it, I don’t think long term. It has never crossed my mind [to be FC Porto president], honestly. I hear it, and we keep hearing it — today it is easy to hear opinions given the reach of social media — but I haven’t thought about it and I’m not thinking about it. In the more distant future, I don’t know. I live my day-to-day life so intensely and passionately, whether in my work or with my family and friends, that even thinking medium term is already difficult for me, let alone long term,” the coach said in an interview with TVI.
Sérgio Conceição also again referred to the relationship he had with Pinto da Costa. “There was a very strong bond between us. Many people know me beyond football and share that opinion. But I don’t go knocking on people’s doors saying, ‘this is what I’m like’. I put on the suit. I didn’t just wear FC Porto’s suit, I wore its skin,” he stressed.
