The relegation of Farense has confirmed a disappointing reality for Algarve football fans: For the first time in nine years, the southernmost region of Portugal will not be represented in the Premier League during the 2025/26 season.
The President of Algarve Tourism expressed his regret, stating, "The region deserves to be represented in the 1st League." This sentiment echoes the disappointment of many who see football as a vital part of the Algarve's cultural and social identity.
This absence marks a significant moment in Portuguese football, highlighting the challenges faced by teams outside the country's major urban centers in competing at the highest levels.
