Froholdt not a worry for FC Porto, return already on the horizon | OneFootball

Victor Froholdt does not pose a ‘headache’ for FC Porto, despite having returned from the international break with a right knee injury after representing Denmark in the 2026 World Cup qualifying matches against Belarus (a draw) and Scotland (a 4-2 defeat).

The midfielder, just 19 years old, did not take part last Saturday in what was his first game since arriving at Dragão—the emphatic 3-0 victory over Sintrense, which secured qualification for the last sixteen of the Portuguese Cup—but, according to this Monday’s edition of the newspaper A Bola, he is already scheduled to return to the pitch.

All indications are that the former Copenhagen player will recover in time for the fifth round match of the Europa League group stage, against Nice, at the Estádio do Dragão, scheduled for 5:45 p.m. (mainland Portugal time) next Thursday.

This is positive news for the Italian coach Francesco Farioli, as the Nordic player is the third most used member of the blue and white squad in the current 2025/26 season, with 1,279 minutes ‘in his legs’, only behind the 1,350 minutes of Diogo Costa and the 1,283 minutes of Jan Bednarek.
