FC Porto: Silvestre Varela set to join Sérgio Ferreira in Liga | OneFootball

Sérgio Ferreira, coach of FC Porto’s under-19 team, is on the verge of making the jump to the top tier of national football and is expected to do so alongside Silvestre Varela, who is also set to head to Alverca to join the new coaching staff of the Ribatejo club.

The former Dragons player and current assistant to Sérgio Ferreira has been working with Porto’s under-19s since 2024/25, after having been part of the B team’s coaching staff in 2023/24.

Now, at 41, he is set to have his first experience on the benches in the top flight. It is also likely that other members will follow the same path, leaving Porto’s junior side to join Alverca, which will require a reorganization of the Dragons’ youth coaching structure.
