Remarks by Sergio Conceicao after being awarded Golden Dragon Trainer of the Year at the Golden Dragons Gala
Golden Dragon value: “I represent a lot of people in this golden dragon. The first time I went to Olival with the president in 2017, he said the four non-negotiable pillars of FC Porto: precision, competence, ambition and passion. Given that, and being with him all The day of my team players, who normally don’t wear a tuxedo, like today, but the most competitive suit required, the Pepe suit, gives me great joy in getting up and going to work.”
technical team, etc: “With a super competent technical team, a health department where there are not only Dr. Nelson Pooja and therapists, but also an optometrist, a paediatrician, and a series of people who work every day so that the players do not miss anything and that year after year they can be better and win, And that’s what we want.”
Technicians: “Winning. Don’t forget the people in the kitchen, the restaurant, the analysis and monitoring people, the equipment technicians, because today everyone is technicians… [risos]🇧🇷 Lawn techs too, because I’m really annoyed with how high the grass is. I believe every detail matters and makes the difference. Finally, a series of people who contribute to making this possible. This is not mine, it belongs to the people of Olival, always led by my great friend and godfather, Chief.”
the family: Finally, a paraphrase for Goncalinho [Borges], I want to dedicate it entirely to my family, which is not easy, and to my parents, as always. Not among us, they would certainly be very proud, not least because they have welcomed two other very important people into the life of the club and they are all watching us, so that FC Porto continues to grow, to continue to improve, to grow stronger and to win. And let’s keep it that way. Ever. Because we deserve it. We are honest, serious, loyal and efficient workers as well.”
