At the time of the early farewell to Manchester City, Frederico Varandas praises Hugo Viana.
The Leonino President highlights the work of the former sports director of Lions since September 2018, when he started duties from the first hour after the first elections won by the current Leonino leader, after the hot summer who followed the departure of Bruno de Carvalho. Varandas highlights the crucial role of the director at a memorable phase of the club's history, with the conquest of two national championships, three league cups, a Super Cup and a Portuguese Cup.
Lions report that Hugo Viana requested the anticipation of his departure from the club, initially scheduled for the end of this sports season. New Football Director General, Bernardo Palmeiro, and technical and scouting director, Flávio Costa, start roles this Tuesday
«Hugo Viana's work over these years was fundamental for the realization of a solid and winning sports project. He played a crucial role in building a team that broke barriers and marked one of the most memorable phases in our recent history, ”said Frederico Varandas.
