FC Porto’s Under-19s began preparations for the new season this Monday at the Jorge Costa Training and Football Development Centre. Gonçalo Oliveira acted as the spokesperson for a group that is “very excited to be back in training” and with “a great desire to work and achieve goals”. “The past is in the past and now we are focused on the new season,” explains the 18-year-old midfielder, who shows pride in “being able to represent this Club”.

Back home“It’s very good to be back. The team was very excited to return to training and now we are focused on pre-season. We want to get off to a good start so that, when the league begins, we are already prepared and with our expectations set very high.”

Strength in team spirit“For me it is a source of pride to be able to represent this team. I feel that I can help them and that they can help me. As I’m older, I feel that responsibility to help them, so I hope they learn and that they teach me a lot as well.”

Working with José João“It has been very good to work with the coach and hear what he has to teach us. It will be a season in which we will learn a lot from the coach, respect his work as much as possible, learn as much as we can from him and help him as well.”

Renewed ambition“The team is very motivated. The past is in the past and now we are focused on this season, which will certainly be a great one. We are very eager to work and achieve our goals.”
