The Geese are one of the oldest clubs in Portugal, having turned 102 years old. However, for most of their history, the capital team have spent time in semi-professional regional leagues or lower professional divisions. The players once managed to reach the Primeira, but quickly returned, and only twenty years later were they able to re-enter the elite division. This re-entry into the top division is a significant achievement for the Lisbon club. At the beginning of the season, the players will be playing their home matches in Leiria, as their stadium, used in the Segunda, needs urgent renovation, which could not be completed before the start of the season. There are no serious goals for the current season yet. Retaining a place in the Primeira would already be a great success. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that the squad has been significantly strengthened, signing players from Granada, PAOK, and Jeonbuk.

Roger Schmidt continues his work with the Glorious. Despite many players leaving the team in the summer, the German coach will remain in Lisbon. Although this decision is not yet final, after meeting with Rui Costa, the coach began to speak more confidently about his future at the club. The main reason for this development is that Rui Costa would have to pay Schmidt twenty million euros in compensation for termination. Additionally, parting with the German coach would be unprofitable for the club president, who himself is in a difficult situation. Law enforcement suspects Costa of money laundering through fictitious contracts with agencies owned by him through proxies, amounting to six million euros. If the scheme is proven, Costa will not only lose his position as president but could also end up behind bars.
