The club Torreense announced the departure of Luís Tralhão from his position as head coach of the first-team football squad. The decision was made by mutual agreement between the parties and was formalized by the II Liga club.

Luís Tralhão, who led Torreense, made history by guiding the team to win the Taça de Portugal and its first participation in the UEFA Europa League. His departure comes five months after this significant milestone in the club's history.

Replacing Luís Tralhão, João Nuno has been officially appointed as the new coach of Torreense. The 41-year-old coach already had experience in the I Liga, having managed Estrela da Amadora.

The new coach has signed a contract until 2028, indicating the club's intention to maintain stability in the technical leadership. João Nuno's presence aims to continue the team's development following a successful period.

As part of the transition, João Nuno is expected to implement his vision and strategies for the team, continuing the work carried out under Tralhão's direction. The appointment of the new coach has been well received among fans and within the club.

The management of Torreense emphasizes the importance of João Nuno's selection in the continuity of the sports project. With his experience and the trust placed in him, the club hopes to achieve new goals in the near future.
