Victor Froholdt continues to stand out at FC Porto and achieved a remarkable feat in his very first month competing for the Dragons. The Danish midfielder, just 19 years old, claimed a “hat trick” of Liga Portugal awards for August: Player of the Month, Midfielder of the Month, and Young Player of the Month.
Chosen for the first time by the main coaches of the Primeira Liga, Froholdt started in all four matches played by the blue and whites during this period, totaling 358 minutes on the field, one goal, and two assists—numbers that highlight the immediate impact of the youngster on FC Porto’s system.
With 25.40% of the votes, the Dane surpassed Clayton (Rio Ave), who received 23.02%, and Morten Hjulmand (Sporting), who completed the podium with 6.35%, thus securing the Player of the Month trophy.
For the Midfielder of the Month award, FC Porto’s number 8 was even more dominant, gathering 39.68% of the preferences, ahead of Luís Esteves (Gil Vicente), with 11.11%, and Fredrik Aursnes (Benfica), with 7.14%.
Finally, Froholdt completed the trio of distinctions by also being named Young Player of the Month for August, with 34.93% of the votes, surpassing teammate William Gomes (14.29%) and Pablo (Gil Vicente, 13.49%).
These distinctions confirm the excellent start of the midfielder in Portugal and reinforce FC Porto’s investment in a talent who, in just a few months, has earned the trust of Sérgio Conceição and the recognition of his opponents.
