FC Porto, which has already secured a place in the Basketball Champions League group stage, may be forced to play the competition in a borrowed arena, as the Dragão Arena does not meet the requirements set by FIBA. Venues must have at least 3,000 seats to host the competition.
Given this scenario, FC Porto is considering increasing the Dragão Arena’s current capacity from 2,000 to 3,000 seats. If it is unable to make that happen, the club is evaluating the possibility of playing at the Matosinhos Sports and Congress Centre, which has 3,870 seats.
