Chaves announced the sale of João Correia to Paphos this Tuesday on social media, after 5 seasons in Trás-os-Montes, where he accumulated 130 matches, 11 goals and 7 assists. With only one year of contract remaining and with the division drop, the departure was something that benefited both parties, financially for the club and sports-wise for the athlete. This is the first adventure of the Cape Verdean outside of Portugal, who also represented Vitória de Guimarães and Pinhalnovense.
