Spoiler:
It came to my attention a few days ago this blog post mentioning an e-mail sent to the Portuguese channel SIC asking about - among other things - a Portuguese broadcast of Dragon Ball Super. That e-mail was answered back with a YES. A yes to a Portuguese dub of Super. While it seemed legit, the post was already a week old and there was no uproar throughout the Internet so I wasn't completely convinced and sent an e-mail to SIC myself.
Here's their answer:
I've translated both e-mails here. My e-mail:
So, it appears to be true. Dragon Ball Super will be dubbed in Portugal with the original voice actors (or at least SIC is planning to)!
The e-mail on that blog post mentioned "Dragon Ball Super 1 and 2" so they probably negotiated two sets of episodes so far.
Let's hope it is a good dub.

Their response:Good afternoon,
There is a rumor you are planning on broadcasting the new Dragon Ball series that premiered in Japan last year, Dragon Ball Super, dubbed in Portuguese in one of your channels.
Can you confirm this? And if it is true, will it be dubbed with the original voice actors (Henrique Feist, João Loy, Cristina Cavalinhos, among others) or will you be using a different team?
Thank you.
I sent back an e-mail asking what they meant with "the original dub" and their answer was "the original voice actors you mentioned".We have received your e-mail, and we appreciate it.
About your question, we'd like to inform you that we will be broadcasting Dragon Ball Super at a date to be announced, with the original dub.
We thank you for your contact.
