Francisco Geraldes on his return to Alvalade

Francisco Geraldes sat down with Sporting TV this Wednesday to share his thoughts on his return to Alvalade.

"I am learning a lot every day and that is why I am here", opened the youngster, affirming that he always felt close to the club while away on loan: "Octávio [Machado] called me a lot. I never felt dar away. Sporting CP always gave me a lot of attention and showed a lot of interest in how I was doing."

To finish, Geraldes affirmed that the spirit in the dressing room is solid and that last weekend's loss to FC Porto is already a distant memory: "The squad will always stand together. People couldn't shake us if they tried. We didn't get the points from the game (FC Porto), but we will fight hard in our coming games. If we play like we did in the second-half, then we will win a lot."
