Francesco Farioli established himself this season as one of the most sought-after coaches in Europe and has recently attracted interest from Chelsea. According to Nicolò Schira, the Italian coach is fully committed to FC Porto and wants to remain in the Invicta city next season.
The same source indicates that the dragons’ president, André Villas-Boas, sees Francesco Farioli as one of the central figures in the club’s project, at a time when the coach already has a contract valid until 2028 and a release clause set at 20 million euros, following the renewal signed midway through the season.
After Liam Rosenior’s departure, the FC Porto coach was among the several names linked with the Chelsea manager’s job, where fellow Portuguese coach Marco Silva has also been mentioned.
