As the new president of FC Porto, Villas-Boas is expected to bring a fresh perspective and innovative ideas to the club. He has extensive experience as a successful manager and a deep-rooted love for the club. During his victory speech, Villas-Boas thanked Pinto da Costa for his service to the club and expressed his commitment to meeting the demands of all Portistas: to win, to lift trophies, and to build a sustainable club for the future.
Nevertheless, the future of Sérgio Conceição, the coach who supported Pinto da Costa during the campaign, remains uncertain. Villas-Boas has not yet revealed his plans regarding the coach.
Overall, the appointment of Villas-Boas as the new president of FC Porto is expected to usher in significant changes and a new era of triumph for the Dragons. With his experience and passion for the club, Villas-Boas has the potential to lead FC Porto to new heights in the coming years.
