Portuguese manager Carlos Carvalhal achieved a notable scalp last night, guiding his Sheffield Wednesday team to a shock 3-0 victory over joint EPL leaders Arsenal in the League Cup.

Former Nacional striker Lucas João scored one of the goals.

Two more Portuguese footballers have signed on the dotted line for Monaco. Real Madrid left-back Fábio Coentrão penned a one-season loan, while Marcos ‘Rony’ Lopes has made a permanent move from Manchester City to the French Ligue 1 club.

Coached by former Sporting manager Leonardo Jardim, Monaco’s playing squad now has seven Portuguese members.
