Francesco Farioli on Jorge Costa: “He gave me FC Porto’s DNA” | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli gave an interview to RTP, in which he addressed various topics. Among them, the FC Porto coach spoke about Jorge Costa, a historic figure of the blue-and-white club, who died following a cardiorespiratory arrest on 5 August 2025.

“Throughout the season I had the feeling that he found a way to help us; he passed on FC Porto’s DNA to me. I’ve said it several times: one of Jorge’s last comments, which he shared with Tiago (Madureira) and Henrique (Monteiro), was, ‘we have a team again.’ For me, that was a great responsibility: to preserve one of his last memories.”
