Eustáquio bluntly: “I feel a champion at FC Porto”, here's why | OneFootball

Stephen Eustáquio admitted that he feels like a champion with FC Porto, highlighting the contribution he made throughout the season, even though he did not accumulate many minutes in competition.

The Canadian international midfielder emphasized the work done on the so-called recovery days, when the starters recover and the remaining squad members train with greater intensity. In his view, that effort was also part of the road to winning the league title.

Eustáquio underlined how demanding those training sessions were, especially for the less-used players, at a stage when the frustration of not playing can weigh heavily. Even so, he assured that he always approached those sessions at full intensity, trying to show his availability to the coach and help his teammates through the most difficult moments of the season.

The midfielder’s reflection comes after a season in which FC Porto once again won the national title. Within the blue-and-white squad, the idea of collective commitment has been pointed to as one of the factors behind the victorious campaign, with several players valuing not only performance on the pitch but also the daily work at Olival.

A club member, Eustáquio added his emotional connection to FC Porto to the professional dimension of the achievement. The player therefore believes that the sacrifice made in training and the way he tried to remain competitive throughout the season give him reason to feel the title is his too.
