Frederico Varandas, candidate for the sports leadership in the elections of September 8, praised the team that is part of his list, a group of people formed, he said, "with one criterion: merit". "I am the only one I have formed a team with only one criterion: merit, no matter what age or what they've already done, but it's interesting that no element from my board of directors has belonged to a former director.final manager who has never been in a company, i answer with my position, my experience.I have 31 years as Clinical Director of Sporting and there is something that is recognized is the medical department.I believe in a competent team that will serve Sporting, said the doctor, who was in Sporting Talks a convention that this Wednesday takes place at the Catholic University of Lisbon.
Balandas also addressed the issue of modalities: "I agree that the number of modalities that exist, 55 , challenge any partner to list them. Unfortunately, we have many modalities that are, like Benfica Auto racing, where we have a driver where we simply put a sticker on Sporting and that is already the modality of Sporting. In the padel, even the equipment has to be the athlete to support them.Although I've lived a lot more in SAD, I've lived the club When we talk about modalities, we talk about budget and costs. No one here, with common sense, thinks the terms will make a profit. We have been champions in 4 modalities We must pay as if it were the case, but everything else is ultra-amateur, from the commercial part to the communication and even to the legal department. ing is a club with mark in the terms, unlike rivals. "
He continued, on the same theme:" I ask if anyone buys a player's jersey from the terms. But it is difficult, you know why? Let me give you an example. We have a commercial agreement with Macron and we receive the equipment that equips all modalities. The new equipment is for the football team. Do the modalities know what they take? The equipment of the previous year of football. I wonder if anyone will buy a sweater the year before … It's just an example of how to monetize. As for the legal department, in football, it's the green way for everything. I set up a transversal clinical department in all modalities, and we had to do clinical examinations for handball, futsal and other athletes. When a football player arrives, as long as it arrives at 11 o'clock, at 11 o'clock, the process is over. He passes the exams, signs and is presented. With the modalities, Miguel Albuquerque would stay suspended during 4 or 5 days while waiting for this legal part. One player stayed in Lisbon these days, and if another club wanted to, he would pick him up. The terms continue to be amateurs even if we do not pay as such. "
