Villas-Boas: U17s should inspire more Dragons to chase dreams | OneFootball

We reproduce in full the reaction of André Villas-Boas to Portugal's victory in the U-17 World Cup:

“The National Team's victory in the U-17 World Cup fills the entire country, and naturally FC Porto, with pride. On behalf of the Club, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to all the players, coaching staff, and officials who contributed to this remarkable achievement for Portuguese football.

A special word for the young talents from FC Porto’s academy, who represented our values of talent, hard work, and ambition in an exemplary manner. Their performance is a great source of satisfaction for the entire Porto family and proof of the work carried out daily in our youth development department.

I also want to highlight coach Bino Maçães, himself a product of FC Porto’s academy, whose competence and leadership were decisive in guiding this golden generation to the world title. This triumph is also a recognition of the value of Portuguese youth development and the role that FC Porto has played in its success.

A big hug from all Porto fans to Martim Chelmik, Bernardo Lima, Mateus Mide, Yoan Pereira, Duarte Cunha. May your example inspire many more young Dragons to fight for their greatest dreams.”
