André Villas-Boas: Club cements reputation, boosts ambition | OneFootball

André Villas-Boas expressed his satisfaction with the results released by FC Porto's SAD for the first half of the 2025/26 season, emphasizing that the club managed to combine good sports performance with a positive financial outcome.

“The first half of the 2025/26 fiscal year, which corresponds to the first half of the current sports season, confirmed FC Porto's ability to respond with determination, balance, and competence to the growing demands of the context in which it operates, both in sports and financial components. The Club has consolidated its reputation, reinforcing its competitive ambition and demonstrating to the markets the results of a renewed management, based on principles of rigor and responsibility,” stated the president of FC Porto, in a brief message accompanying the presentation of SAD's accounts.

“From an economic-financial perspective, the results reflect a trajectory of consolidation and sustainable recovery aimed at achieving a balanced economic operation. The increase in operational revenues – notably from commercial revenues including sponsorships and ticketing, where the continuous increase in the number of Members and the full sale of annual seats fuel well-founded expectations –, the superior results from player transfer transactions, and the reduction in financial charges, as a result of debt refinancing operations, notably the almost total amortization of the operation anticipating television rights, allowed for compensating the increased costs resulting from investment in the main football team, achieving a balanced net result,” further stated the leader of the dragons.
