Porto key man back from injury, set to start against Sporting | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli's pupil missed the third matchday of the League, but recovered in time to compete in Sporting - Porto

Samu, Porto's forward, left in tears from the dragons' 2-0 victory over Gil Vicente, for the second matchday of the Liga Portugal, after leaving the match with complaints. However, the player recovered from the physical problem and will be a starter against Sporting.

Samu had been diagnosed by the dragons' medical department with a "injury to the anterior face of the left thigh", without pointing to the recovery time of the 21-year-old forward. It is certain that the problem has been resolved and the forward will be an option in the fourth matchday's game.

Francesco Farioli's pupil missed the third matchday of the main Portuguese football tier, played at the Dragão Stadium last Sunday, August 24, against Casa Pia, by João Pereira. Even so, the dragons thrashed the geese 4-0.

Rui Borges also believes that Samu will be the dragons' initial choice instead of Luuk De Jong. In the preview, the green and white's coach highlighted the qualities of the two dragon forwards, but mentioned that the Spaniard should be the starter in the attack front (Remember HERE).

The green and white emblem will thus return to the field next Saturday, August 30, against Porto. The match, counting for the fourth matchday of the National Championship, against the team led by the Italian coach, will be played at 8:30 pm, in Alvalade.
