Goalkeeper will be part of the staff that runs the football team, while he recovers from his health condition
While he recovers from his health condition, Iker Casillas will be part of the staff that runs the football team of FC Porto. The Spanish international star will now be in charge of the connection between the players, the coach and the board, and his actions will be linked to other duties within the club.
“I’m doing something different from my usual role, which had me on the pitch. I will try to be the link between the team and the club. The coach talked to me last season, when my condition came up, and told me he wanted me to stay with them, close to the players, close to the youngsters, as there would be many changes. I will try to do my best to help my teammates”, Casillas explained.
Talking to Porto Canal, Iker Casillas also set the tone for the next weeks: “We are going to prepare in the best possible way at the start of the season. We have several weeks on our legs, but there are still a couple of weeks to prepare for the first official matches. May we have a great season together and may we win the championship, the cups, and go as far as possible in Europe.”
