Add manager Nuno Espírito Santo and some of his backroom staff into the mix, and you can see why the language is so common at the club nowadays.

“We have a fantastic group. We get along very well. We dine together, celebrate birthdays together. It’s a really good group,” Vinagre told Portuguese newspaper Record, via Sport Witness.

“But it’s not just with the Portuguese players, it’s with everyone.

“The English and the French [players] even try to learn to speak Portuguese.

“We have a fantastic group and that is fundamental in what we have been doing.”
