Young Portuguese midfielder Fabio Vieira has candidly expressed his inner thoughts on his return to Porto and his expectations for the future in an interview with leading national media outlet La Match. Vieira's career at Arsenal was plagued by injuries which limited his play in the Premier League, but now he has returned to Porto with renewed hope and determination.
Vieira has been outspoken in stating that the decision to return to Porto is entirely of his own personal volition. "The idea to return to Porto came from me personally," he said, "I love this club and I will give my all on the pitch." This heartfelt confession not only shows his deep affection for Porto, but also signals that he will do his best to contribute to the team in the new season.
During his difficult time at Arsenal, Vieira went through a long process of surgery and rehabilitation, which severely affected his Premier League appearances. Last season, he only made 16 appearances in all competitions, which was undoubtedly a huge blow for a young player. However, Vieira did not give up and chose to return to Porto on loan, where he hopes to regain his form and confidence.
Vieira is full of anticipation and excitement for this return. "I'm obviously delighted that this is my home," he said, "I'm looking forward to getting into the main stadium, playing in front of the fans and doing my best for this club." He knows that he has more opportunities and a bigger stage at Porto and this will be the perfect chance for him to prove himself again.
Vieira also spoke candidly about his experiences in England. "I suffered a difficult period in England," he said, "but I believe playing at Porto is a great opportunity for me to continue growing. I feel it's the right place for me." This positive mindset and clear goals will provide a solid foundation for his future at Porto.
