Joao Lourenco
Head Coach
To teach, to train, and to extract the best from my players is my daily motivation. Knowing that I can contribute my knowledge and experience to their development makes me feel proud. Their victories and achievements are my victories.
My journey in football started 28 years ago, when I began as a player. When my playing career ended, I knew that becoming a coach was the next natural step. My career as a coach in 2009 in a small club in Lisbon. From there I went to Sporting Clube de Portugal to work with elite youth players. I also had the opportunity to work abroad and expand my knowledge and experience, one year in Harju JK (Estonia) and one year in Al Nasr(United Arab Emirates), and then returning to Sporting CP. During my time at Sporting CP, was able to work with emerging top players such as Nuno Mendes(PSG), Gonçalo Inácio(SCP), Dário Essugo(SCP), Mateus Fernandes (SCP), among others that are now rising in Sporting CP first team.
