ScoutDecision x Guarda FC: Building the Future of Scouting in Portugal
ScoutDecision is proud to announce its partnership with Guarda FC, a club that represents a district capital and is taking ambitious steps toward building a modern and professional scouting structure. In a landscape where many clubs still rely on limited resources and informal processes, Guarda FC is showing that ambition and organization can transform the way a club operates. Led by João Morgado, Chief Scout, the club has structured its scouting department with clear vision and innovation. The project counts on a dedicated team of first-team scouts strategically positioned across the country — and even in Brazil — ensuring that talent identification goes beyond local borders. This forward-thinking approach is not only a milestone for Guarda FC, but also a use case for other Portuguese clubs, including those in higher divisions, to see the value of investing in structured scouting and professional tools. At ScoutDecision, we believe Guarda FC’s project represents the future of how clubs in Portugal can operate: with ambition, quality professionals, and the right technology to support their vision. We are excited to be part of this journey and look forward to seeing how Guarda FC continues to grow and inspire.
