Jorge Nuno de Lima Pinto da Costa is the current President of Portuguese sports club F.C. Porto.
Pinto da Costa is a charismatic leader of FC Porto and a polarizing figure in Portuguese football. He is hugely popular among the followers of F.C. Porto, which he led to become one of the top European clubs. His long stint as leader of FC Porto, and his deep knowledge of the inner works of Portuguese football earned him the nickname of the Pope (o Papa).
Domestic success continued to be a hallmark of FC Porto in subsequent years, and 1995-1999 became the highest note of Portuguese domestic competition ever. Following titles by Bobby Robson (1995 and 1996) and António Oliveira (1997 and 1998), Fernando Santos captured a record-setting 5th consecutive title in 1999. Porto later achieved 2nd place in the championship but won the 2000 and 2001 Portuguese Cups (whilst reaching the European Quarterfinals in both seasons) only to replace Fernando Santos with Octávio Machado. Octávio however only had a short stint at Porto. His replacement would be José Mourinho.
