When footballers from overseas move to England, the first thing they do is hire a language coach. That’s where Sara Duque, who has 150,000 followers on Instagram, has made a mark for herself. She was a sports lawyer before taking up a job as a football language coach at Porto. After one season with the Primeira Liga side in 2020, she went solo. Duque is fluent in six languages—Portuguese, English, German, French and Spanish. 

One of her famous students is Manchester City’s Argentine star Julian Alvarez, who was a part of the World Cup-winning side. According to The Sun, many WAGs have blocked her from working with their partners due to her good looks.
