Pepê: “Diogo Costa? We know what he’s been through lately” | OneFootball

Match summary: “It’s very important to start the season with a title. We’re very happy to have won this title and to become the most successful club in Portugal. Now we have to keep working; we know it will be a very difficult season and we have to perform at our level.”

The importance of keeping the core of the team together: “It’s very important; last season we showed our unity.”

Are FC Porto starting as favourites? “We have to show it on the pitch. We know it’s a very difficult competition and that it has great teams. We have to show on the pitch what we’ve been working on and keep winning.”

Diogo Costa’s possible departure: “He’s one of the best goalkeepers in the world. We know what has happened in personal terms in recent days, and I think that’s why he has been like this. But we’re by his side to help with whatever is needed.”
