FC Porto issued a statement this Sunday in response to alleged insinuations about Judicial Police investigations into the club related to refereeing matters. In the statement, the dragons reacted directly to what they considered to be public insinuations about the matter.
In the document, FC Porto made clear that it 'does not appoint referees', emphasizing that this is a function that does not fall under the club's responsibilities. This assertion comes in response to allegations that have been made about the club's supposed influence in the appointment of referees for matches.
The statement was issued after the club felt the need to publicly address what it considered to be incorrect insinuations regarding an investigation that is reportedly being conducted by the Judicial Police. The dragons' reaction comes at a time of tension surrounding these issues.
FC Porto chose to respond institutionally through this statement, attempting to clarify its position and dismiss the suspicions that have been publicly raised about its supposed intervention in refereeing matters.
