Pinto da Costa addressed, at a dinner organized by the Casa do FC Porto de Caracas, which took place in the Luso-Venezolano Centre, the recent searches in the club’s SAD, as well as the suspicions about deviations in the transfer commissions.
“They sent a message from someone I participated in and shared commissions. I challenged them to provide proof of this on my accounts or on the accounts of whoever they say paid commissions. On the day they introduce me, and they can’t do it because it doesn’t exist, I would leave FC Porto. As this doesn’t exist, except in the minds of some, I’m still at FC Porto», stressed the FC Porto leader, cited by the club’s website.
Pinto da Costa also took the opportunity to deny news that pointed to the removal of Vítor Baía from the club’s structure. «But how? We are together every day, we went to Portimão together», he fired.
Ending his speech, the president of the dragons stressed: «“FC Porto will have a bright future because you know how to pass on this feeling and love of the club from generation to generation, as I have seen in all houses. It’s a moment of great satisfaction for me, of great comfort, of great desire to fight for FC Porto. That’s what I will do. On Tuesday, if we achieve our victory, our goal, you can believe that at that moment I will think of all of you.”
