Bruno de Carvalho meets with CDS-PP Members of Parliament

The Sporting CP president, Bruno de Carvalho, met with Members of Parliament from the CDS-pp party this week, to speak about various initiatives to combat corruption in sport.

"We are hear, above all else, to talk about laws in sport. It is important to keep presenting proposals, especially for a club like Sporting CP that is so involved in training young players. It is important that our law makers understand that everything is related to contracts, protecting athletes and clubs. That is what is needed to make Portuguese football grow even more. It was a good discussion and we will carry on working", said Bruno de Carvalho about the meeting, hosted by the CDS-PP parliamentary leader, Nuno Magalhães.

the Alvalade chief went on to reflect on what is now a series of three meetings with the country's main political parties: "I am really satisfied, because there is now more and more political willingness to get involved with the daily activities of football. This sport cannot be overshadowed by a sub-system. It has to be transparent, true and credible. I think these parliamentary groups feel that, which is excellent."
