He will also be officially replaced by Hugo Viana from Sporting Portugal who will also have the difficult task of participating in the sporting reconstruction.

Sooner or later it’s going to happen and they’re prepared. All families need to move on, and the club will move on. If they ask me my opinion on the future coach, I will give them my opinion. But that’s not my job. The decision will be made for them, not for me. » This Saturday morning, the Daily Mirror and the Daily Mail reveal that this soap opera could quickly end.
