The week began with the visit of the ‘hero of Alkmaar” to the Player Academy in Odivelas. Upon arrival, Miguel Garcia, who went through to the Training Camp in 2009 before signing with Olhanense and playing in the Europa League final representing SC Braga, was surprised with the excellent conditions of the new home of the Portuguese Players Union: “I wasn't expecting to find these excellent conditions", he said.

After following the team's work, under the coach Neca orders, the former defender encouraged the participants, being confident that future will be better for the 17th Training Camp participants. “It's a matter of time before you join a new club, guys!” And what is the best way to return to the competition, keep up the pace and prove to clubs that there is quality here? Playing, of course. On Tuesday and Wednesday, Sintra Football and Real SC, respectively, were the opponents of the 17th Training Camp who, in both meetings, performed at an excellent level.

Super cup is the competition that marks the start of the sporting season, but the transfer market is far from close. Between entrances and exits, with mixed sales and millionaire purchases, emerges the need to combat human trafficking and aid for illegal immigration in football. A fight that lasts but can be minimized with the new rules of the Portuguese FA for registration of foreign players.
