Lion City Sailors FC Overview

Although they suffered a dramatic exit in the round of 16, Bodø/Glimt’s Champions League campaign remains a fond memory. The new kit is also intended to symbolise the club’s resurgence.

The Brazilians' recruitment of talent from overseas has largely proven to be spot-on in recent years, with players like Marcelo Allende, Brayan Leon, Arthur Sales, Nuno Santos, Miguel Reisinho and former forward Lucas Ribeiro Costa making a strong impact. Their success in identifying and integrating foreign quality has strengthened the Brazilians’ dominance domestically and making themselves a continental powerhouse. However, the club has also faced criticism for overlooking a high-performing Portugal-based talent who, some believe, could have added more value to the squad.

The incredible Champions League journey of Bodo/Glimt has met a dramatic end. After securing a stunning three-goal advantage in Norway, the Arctic underdogs were dismantled by Sporting CP in Lisbon. The Portuguese giants delivered a breathtaking 5-0 victory after extra time, overturning the heavy deficit to secure a historic spot in the quarter-finals.
