With the closure of pre-season preparations, Pinto da Costa in this month’s issue of Dragões highlighted the optimism with which he welcomes the new season, including thanks to the return of fans to the stadiums.
“The moment a new season starts is always special. This is the time when there is no past, but only the future. This is a time of dreams, hopes and high expectations. And at Porto we only think about winning. In this case, in order to become national champions again, continue to have good Champions League campaigns and fill our magnificent museum with as many trophies as possible. The optimism with which I look at the new season is based (not only, but also) on the preparation period, when the team gave very good signals. The weeks of work in Olivale and the Algarve have confirmed that we have an excellent group, full of good values, which gives guarantees for the present and the future and which is very well managed by a technical team, ”writes the leader of FC Porto, stressing afterwards:
“I know, of course, that communication between fans and FC Porto is not only provided through television, computers or mobile phones. It is in all our homes, in the Dragau stadium, and in all the fields in this country that Porto players are now eager to visit. Fortunately, this will finally be possible from the first round of this championship. And this is another reason for me to be optimistic. Dragons are much stronger together. “
