The start of our 17th Training Camp, the International FIFPro Tournament and Diogo Coelho’s award The 17th edition of our Training Camp is already on, having the valorization of the players, not only through a physical perspective, but also about their formation, as one of its main purposes.

This initiative, highly regarded by everyone, will go until the 31st of august and was presented by the president of the Players’ Union, in a public ceremony with plenty of people.

This weekend, in the context of our Training Camp, teams of free players from Portugal, Spain, Netherlands and Switzerland will play the International Tournament at the Player Academy in Odivelas. On saturday, they will play several matches of 45 minutes each and the next day there will be 3rd/4th places and the final, both with 90 minutes.

Three days before the International FIFPro Tournament for free players, the president of the Players’ Union went to the Academy of the Player, in Odivelas, saying some words of encouragement to the participants in our 17th Training Camp.

“I did it on purpose”, said Diogo Coelho, defender from Nacional, about the play which allowed him to get the Union Players’ award for best goal 2018/19.
