Hjalte Froholdt joins brother Victor at FC Porto | OneFootball

Hjalte Froholdt, an 18-year-old right-back, is set to leave Lyngby and is expected to join FC Porto on loan.

Farzam Abolhosseini, a journalist for Tipsbladet, reported the news, which was later picked up by several Danish media outlets. The deal includes a one-season loan, with an option to buy for the Dragons.

The player is already travelling to Portugal, where he will undergo medical tests and finalize the last details of the agreement before being officially unveiled.

While his brother Victor is one of the standout figures in Porto’s first team, Hjalte is expected to begin his blue-and-white adventure between the under-19s and the B team.

FC Porto’s intention is to give the youngster a gradual integration into Portuguese football, and he may also be used in the Youth League with the under-19 team.

Hjalte mainly plays as a right-back and leaves behind at Lyngby the image of an intense player, capable of providing width down the flank and contributing in attack without neglecting his defensive duties.

Born in May, the young Dane recently renewed his contract with Lyngby until 2030, a sign of the club’s confidence in his abilities. Victor Froholdt was present when his brother signed the extension.

After just a few months, the two brothers are now close to sharing the same club again, this time in Portugal.

FC Porto continues to focus on the Danish market, following the immediate impact of Victor Froholdt, signed in the summer of 2025 and quickly established as one of the main pillars of the first team.

For Hjalte, however, the planned path will be different: a gradual adaptation, development in Porto’s academy, and growth with a view to reaching senior football.
