He is ANDRE VILLAS BOAS.
He is a young coach.....But He has won 3 trophies at the age of 33 years, namely the European league, cup and league portugal. This full bioadata
Luís André de Pina Cabral e Villas-Boas (born 17 October 1977) is a Portuguese football manager currently managing Porto in the Portuguese Primeira Liga.
He is regarded as unique in the sense that he has no football playing experience, became a coach of a major club with very little head coaching experience, and achieved this role at a very young age. He is currently the youngest football manager in the Portuguese league and the youngest manager in history to win a European title.
Coaching career
At the age of 16, Villas-Boas (who was always a Porto supporter) lived in the same apartment block as the English Bobby Robson, who was managing FC Porto at the time. Following a debate between the two, Robson appointed Villas-Boas to Porto's observation department.Ironically Villas-Boas had argued that Robson should play Domingos Paciência more regularly, the future coach of SC Braga who Villas Boas would defeat in the 2011 Europa League final to make history. Under the guidance of Robson, who was impressed with his fluent knowledge of the English language, he achieved his UEFA C coaching licence as a minor at the age of 17 in Scotland. He then had a short stint as head coach of the British Virgin Islands national team at the age of 21, before he moved onto a career as an assistant under the management of José Mourinho at Porto, another protégé of Robson's. As Mourinho moved clubs to Chelsea and Internazionale, Villas-Boas followed suit.Académica
At the start of the 2009–10 season, Villas-Boas abandoned Mourinho's staff to pursue a career as manager, and he soon found a job in the Primeira Liga with Académica de Coimbra, filling a vacancy created by Rogério Gonçalves' resignation in October 2009.At the time of Villas-Boas' appointment, Académica were at the bottom of the league and still without wins, but their luck started to change as he introduced a new style, leading them to a safe 11th place, ten points clear of the relegation zone. In addition to that, Académica also reached the 2009–10 Portuguese League Cup semi-finals, losing against Porto at the Estádio do Dragão with a late goal from Mariano González. His impact at Académica was immediate, not only because of solid results, but also because of the attractive football displayed by the team, which led to intense media speculation linking him with the vacant job at Sporting Clube de Portugal after the departure of Carlos Carvalhal in the summer of 2010.Porto
When Jesualdo Ferreira left Porto, his name was also linked with the job at Estádio do Dragão, and Villas-Boas was finally announced as their new manager on 2 June 2010, having been presented on 4 June.On 7 August 2010, he won his first trophy when Porto beat Benfica 2–0 in the Portuguese Supercup.He followed this with the Portuguese Primeira Liga, UEFA Europa League and Portuguese Cup titles.In his first season as coach, Villas-Boas set the following records:
- By winning the UEFA Europa League on 18 May 2011, he is the youngest manager ever to win a European competition, at 33 years and 213 days of age
- The club record for the most matches across all competitions unbeaten (36). This record was previously held by José Mourinho at 33 matches.Part of this streak was completed by the previous coach of FC Porto, Jesualdo Ferreira.
- The most wins in Europe in one season by a Portuguese club (14)
- The most points in a 30-game Portuguese league season (84)
- The highest number of consecutive wins in the Portuguese league (16)
- The biggest margin over the second placed team in the league (21)
- The only team to go unbeaten through a Portuguese league season aside from Benfica in 1972/73and 1977/78
- On 3 April 2011, Villas-Boas won his first Primeira Liga, five rounds before the end, by defeating second-place Benfica 2–1 away at the Estádio da Luz in Lisbon, becoming the third youngest coach to win it, only behind Mihály Sistka (1938–39) and Juca (1961–62). It is the second time that Porto won the Portuguese league by beating its rival at its home soil, the first time being 71 years ago, in the 1939–40 season when Porto clinched the title by defeating Benfica at the Estádio das Amoreiras.
- On 22 May 2011, Villas-Boas won the Treble by winning the Portuguese Cup, equalizing Tomislav Ivić (when he won 4 titles for Porto in 1987/88), and making Porto the first (and only) European team to win a treble twice (Portuguese League, Portuguese Cup and UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League).
