FC Porto pay tribute to Jorge Costa at the revamped Olival 🐉 | OneFootball

FC Porto pays another tribute to Jorge Costa today, which will go down in history: the Olival training center will, from this Tuesday, bear the name of the former captain of the blue and whites.

André Villas-Boas will announce the change starting at 12:30 PM, in a ceremony that will also be attended by the family of the former member of Francesco Farioli's technical team.

It should be remembered that Jorge Costa, a former international for FC Porto and director of professional football for the blue and whites, passed away on August 5th, at the age of 53, following a cardiorespiratory arrest. The death was declared at the Hospital de São João, after he was transported there following a sudden illness at the club's training center in Olival, Vila Nova de Gaia.
