João Mário and Fábio Vieira’s careers continue from formation to the main team.

One is from São João da Madeira, the other from Argoncilhe, but since joining FC Porto (2009), João Mário and Fábio Vieira have been inseparable.

The careers of the winger and the midfielder seem more twins, as they both went through Dragon Force in the same season (2013/14), they went to Padroense at the same time (2015/16), they debuted in the B team in 2018/19, They were promoted to the main team in 2019/20, resuming work after the interruption by the pandemic, and completed the 50th game as a senior on the same day: last Sunday, with Moreirense.

The friendship between the two goes beyond the walls of the dragon bathhouse, to the point that in 2019 Fábio’s parents said, in an O GOGO report, that their son had a relationship with João “as if they were brothers. “

In addition, until November the two had in common the employer (Marcelo Cipriano), the duration of the contract (2022) and even the termination clause (30 million euros). However, the winger ended up renewing the link with the club until 2025 and changing agents (Jorge Mendes), while the midfielder is still waiting for a new link, although in the past there have been some conversations about it. However, this should be the next common point between the two friends, whom Sérgio Conceição has already turned to a few times this season: Fábio has 15 games and one goal, João “only” nine games.
