Fabio Vieira

The midfielder was a standout player as Portugal lost the European Under 19 Championship final to Spain in 2019. It led to teams such as Liverpool and Tottenham taking a keen interest in him.


However, in terms of his Porto career, his goal in the UEFA Youth League final against Chelsea the same year was what got him promoted to the first team. He made regular appearances for Porto B in the 2019/20 campaign in the second division, whilst also making his debut for the senior side against Maritimo.
