Paulinho’s sale was “fantastic” for SAD and a “hole in the aircraft carrier” by the team from Sp. Braga – Sp. Braga

Carlos Carvalhal addressed Paulinho’s departure for Sporting, for 16 million euros, and admitted that this is an excellent deal for SAD but bad for the way the Sp. Braga team played.

“Sp. Braga has to sell every year and make 15 million euros in sales in order to be a healthy and sustainable club. This is how Portuguese football is, it happens to everyone. Given this business opportunity, in a period of pandemic, and not knowing what will happen in the next market, the transfer turns out to be inevitable and fantastic for Sp. Braga’s accounts “, said the coach to RTP3, speaking after the negative part of Paulinho’s departure for the lions. “We had a very strong inner game with Paulinho, Iuri and Ricardo Horta. With Iuri’s injury and Paulinho’s departure, we took a break in the aircraft carrier. But we were able to reinvent ourselves. Abel Ruiz emerged, who became There is a before and one after Paulinho’s departure for him. He gained confidence, more opportunities “, considered Carlos Carvalhal, also addressing the arrival of Sporar and the evolution of the injured Rui Fonte and the young Vítor Oliveira:” The condition that I imposed for Paulinho’s departure it was that we had to tackle with another player. The Sporar hypothesis came up and he said yes. There is still Rui Fonte who is injured but close to returning and we have Vítor, a young man who has been working with us, who has already scored a goal in the Portuguese Cup and in whom we place a lot of expectations. ”
