Redondense appoints Luis Coxola as coach as Vitória goalkeeper Ezequiel Reis joins Sporting São João de Ver

Luis Coxola, who led Sporting Clube de Viana do Alentejo to a Dinis Vital Cup and a Supertaça, has been named head coach of Redondense for the 2026/27 season. He will guide the team in the Divisão de Elite of the Évora district, aiming to return the club to the top half of the table and boost fan engagement.

Nineteen‑year‑old goalkeeper Ezequiel Reis leaves Brazil's Vitória, despite a contract until 2029, to sign with Portuguese third‑division side Sporting Clube São João de Ver for the same season. The club highlighted his record‑breaking save rate in the Campeonato Brasileiro Sub‑20 and expects him to compete for a starting role.

Both moves reflect increased mobility between Brazilian and Portuguese lower‑division football, with clubs seeking fresh talent and coaches to improve performance.
