Villas-Boas: “Cardoso Varela? Huge talent at FC Porto, now it’s up to him”

Gradual progression: “There is a huge desire to fill a role that, in 2024, was meant to be his: joining the first team, training with the first team, and establishing himself in FC Porto’s first team. He necessarily takes a step back, because his place right now is as a player for the B team, but with the potential he has, we believe he will quickly reach the first team.”

Talent for the future: “A great talent is signing for FC Porto, we believe so, but now it depends on him. We have opened the doors, but now his talent must always be at the Club’s disposal. The player has to perform for FC Porto and its objectives, and that is what we believe in.”
