FC Porto start pre-season on 1 July, England camp before Super Cup | OneFootball

After a pre-season shaped by the calendar due to participation in the Club World Cup, and with the added factor of having only recently arrived at FC Porto, Francesco Farioli will have around a month to prepare for the official start of the 2026/27 campaign, against Torreense, in the Super Cup. And the plan is already in place.

Training is scheduled to begin on 1 July at the Jorge Costa Training and Sports Development Centre, in Olival, where the team will stay for around two weeks. Then, according to Record, the national champions will travel to England for their pre-season training camp at St George’s Park National Football Centre, in Burton upon Trent, home of the England national teams. According to the information gathered, although the exact dates have not yet been finalised, the Dragons will hold their camp in England during the week of 12 to 19 July, after Sp. Braga leave those facilities. And they will leave before Barcelona begin their preparations there. Finally, the Dragons will return home for the final fine-tuning, once again in Olival.

The warm-up matches FC Porto will play during pre-season have yet to be decided, as has the official date of the Super Cup, scheduled for a window between 31 July and 2 August.

Even so, the outline is in place and Francesco Farioli will have every condition to prepare for the first game of the season, with a trophy at stake, as well as work on different solutions, also tactically, for his second season in charge of FC Porto.
