Torreón, Celje and the So-Called Portuguese School

Dia de Jogo — jornal desportivo14 September 2026 at 18:17

The article discusses the presence of Portuguese football coaches at clubs abroad, away from the major centers of media attention. Renato Paiva achieved his first victory in Mexico, leading a team in Torreón. This result marks a positive start for the Portuguese coach in his adventure in Mexican football.

On the other hand, Vítor Campelos left Celje, the Slovenian club where he was working. His departure represents another change in the trajectory of Portuguese coaches outside Portugal.

The article refers to these destinations as "places without spotlights," suggesting they are not clubs of great size or European visibility. However, the text highlights that it is precisely in these choices that the so-called "Portuguese school" of football coaches is found.

This Portuguese school seems to be associated with professionals who choose projects in less publicized leagues, where they can develop their work away from the big spotlights of European football.

Why this matters

Portuguese readers follow with interest the careers of their compatriots abroad. This article shows that, beyond the big clubs, there are Portuguese coaches doing significant work in smaller leagues, which can open doors to more opportunities and reflects the good reputation of Portuguese technical training.
