The end of a dream? That's the title of Alan Varela's book, "The End of a Dream for FC Porto". The book is a reflection on the Portuguese football club FC Porto and its struggles to overcome the challenges that have come their way.

FC Porto has always been known as one of Portugal's most successful clubs, but they have faced numerous setbacks over the years. In 2017, the club was relegated from the top flight of Portuguese football after finishing last in the league table. However, the Portuguese national team coach, Luiz Felipe Scolari, saw potential in the club and made a move to bring them back up to the highest level of European football.

However, things did not go as planned for FC Porto. After just two seasons at the helm, Luiz Felipe Scolari resigned and the club struggled to find new success. In 2021, FC Porto finished last in the league table once again, which led to the club being relegated back to the third tier of Portuguese football.

Despite the challenges, FC Porto still managed to stay competitive in the second tier of Portuguese football. They have had some good moments this season, with wins against Real Madrid and Manchester United. However, they also face tough competition from other teams who have similar fortunes.

For Alan Varela, his book is about the struggle of FC Porto and how it has shaped the club's identity. He argues that while FC Porto may be struggling, they are still capable of achieving great things if they work hard and believe in themselves.

Overall, FC Porto remains a club that has a lot of talent and potential. Despite facing many challenges over the years, they continue to fight for their place in the history of Portuguese football.
