Rui Borges on Wolves interest: Sporting boss says he’s "focused..." | OneFootball

Rui Borges has already commented on Wolverhampton's interest. Recently placed on the Premier League club's radar to succeed Vítor Pereira - who was dismissed this past weekend -, the Sporting coach expressed his satisfaction at Alvalade.

"I am happy in the house I want, I am happy where I am. May it be so for many years, it's a good sign and it's where I feel good," emphasized the green and white coach, in statements to Sport TV, ahead of the lions' trip to Turin, with the coach also addressing Juventus, their Champions League opponent.

"They remain within their objectives. It is a very mature team, probably one of the teams with the most appearances. This speaks well of their quality. Besides the individual quality. A change of coach brings a different commitment. We only have one game from mister Spalletti to analyze," stated Rui Borges.

Regarding the situation of the Sporting team, the coach reacted to the series of victories: "I'm not one to think much about phases. I focus on the next one. It's clear that the team is getting better and better, with a lot of capacity in the offensive game. I believe they will be super motivated to give a great response."

Moreover, Rui Borges was also confronted with the knee protection Luis Suárez is training with, explaining the necessity: "It was just preventive, a small discomfort in the game, but nothing concerning."

Sporting will be back on the field on Tuesday, November 4th, this time against the Italians from Juventus. The match, counting for the fourth round of the Champions League, against the team led by Luciano Spalletti, will be played at the opponent's ground, at 8:00 PM.
