André Franco, a midfielder loaned by FC Porto to Chicago Fire, announced on social media that he suffered a severe knee injury and will be sidelined for several months.

In the post, it can be read: "It seems that life wanted to test me and a confirmed injury will keep me off the fields for a few months. Difficult times are ahead but I am ready for this challenge. In this profession, we know that we are always subject to this type of injury and bad luck knocked on my door this time. Is it sad? Yes. Frustrating? Very much so. Is it the end of the world? Not even close, what is mine is kept and I will go after it."
