Villas-Boas admits FC Porto tweaks, wants core kept: “Changes may happen” | OneFootball

André Villas-Boas admitted the possibility of changes to FC Porto’s squad during the summer transfer window, although he stressed that the priority is to preserve the core of the team.

The Porto president acknowledged that the financial context limits the ability of Portuguese clubs to act and made it clear that there could be some movement in the coming months. Even so, he reiterated that the main intention of the SAD is to keep the players considered most important within the group.

In the same remarks, Villas-Boas also addressed incoming transfers. Among the names linked with the club, he referred to Froholdt, while on Robert Lewandowski he made his position unmistakably clear, considering him a target beyond FC Porto’s reach.

The statements come as part of preparations for the new season, at a stage when the club is beginning to define its strategy for strengthening the squad managed by Francesco Farioli. The Porto administration is seeking to balance sporting ambition with financial prudence, in a market where asset appreciation and the need to generate funds continue to shape the national reality.

For now, Villas-Boas’ message points to a line of continuity, while still not closing the door to departures that may arise over the course of the summer.
