Villas Boas’ comments rile Sporting, Varandas set to respond | OneFootball

Sporting is going to file a disciplinary complaint against the president of Porto. In the view of the Lions, the words of André Villas-Boas spoken this Tuesday, October 7, during the Portugal Football Globes Gala "attack the honor of President Frederico Varandas and the reputation of Sporting SAD".

The lion emblem believes that the words of the highest leader of the blues and whites are offensive to the Alvalade Club. Remember that the president of Porto criticized the alleged meeting between the leader and Pedro Proença "to make a club mapping of the social bodies of the Federation".

"These are serious statements. After the statements on this topic, I wrote a message to the president of the Federation, Pedro Proença, because if his motto is to unite football, statements like these cannot go unpunished", said Villas Boas, in the City of Football.

André Villas Boas emphasized that, if the meeting referred to by Varandas really happened, the clubs have the right to be informed and to demand transparency: "There cannot be a mapping of the social bodies of the FPF without all the clubs being informed of the same. Or, at least, that it is public and not between two people. I find the statements serious. If this meeting happened, if this mapping happened, we all have the right to know who these people are.

The highest leader of Porto made a direct appeal to Pedro Proença, asking him to exercise his leadership role and to end the controversy with clarity and firmness. “If he wants to unite, he has to step forward and, once and for all, reaffirm his authority" (Remember HERE).
