Os Dragões
Futebol Clube do Porto, founded in 1893, is one of Portugal’s “big three” and a genuine European heavyweight. Winners of more than 30 Primeira Liga titles, Porto twice conquered the continent — lifting the European Cup in 1987 and the Champions League in 2004 under José Mourinho.
Renowned for their shrewd recruitment and steely competitive edge, Os Dragões reclaimed the Primeira Liga title in 2025/26 under Francesco Farioli — restoring their dominance at home and returning to the Champions League as Portuguese champions.
