Sérgio Conceição: “I lived FC Porto, president? Not long-term”

The connection to Pinto da Costa: “The president was one of the most remarkable people in my professional life. I joined FC Porto at a young age, went out on loan, came back and lived through two wonderful years. Then I returned at a very complicated time for FC Porto, when we worked together very intensely. They were difficult times, but also euphoric ones. We went through three years in which the club was under financial fair play restrictions, on top of the pandemic. Anyway. They were seven very demanding years, with many barriers and obstacles to overcome. With the persistence and determination the president had, we overcame everything with distinction, winning titles.”
