OFFICIAL: Estoril secures young centre-back from Fulham on loan

Maisfutebol30 August 2026 at 17:16

Estoril secured the signing of Sam Amissah, a 19-year-old centre-back, on loan from Fulham for the 2026/27 season. The defender had been linked to the English club since 2023.

The young player represents an investment in the future development of the canarinha side, which seeks to reinforce its defensive sector with young talent. The operation allows Estoril to benefit from the experience of a player developed at one of the Premier League clubs.

Amissah thus joins Estoril's list of signings for next season, at a time when the club is seeking to consolidate its position in the competitions it participates in. The loan grants the player the opportunity to gain minutes and experience in Portuguese football.

Winning without communicating is only winning half...

An opinion article in Jornal do Algarve criticizes Italian coach Francesco Farioli, of FC Porto, for not making any effort to communicate in Portuguese, even after 13 months at the club. The author argues that, although FC Porto is winning on the pitch — being the undefeated leader after three rounds —, it is losing the game of respect for the local community by continuing to hold press conferences and official communications exclusively in English and Italian. Comparing with examples like Bobby Robson, who spoke Portuguese in Porto, or Pep Guardiola, who learned German quickly, the author argues that this stance sends the message that the coach is "just passing through" and does not need the fans. He concludes that "winning without communicating is only winning half."
