Pablo Rosario makes FC Porto training debut, updates on Samu | OneFootball

FC Porto held another training session this Thursday in preparation for the derby against Sporting, with special attention given to Pablo Rosario and Samu. Pablo Rosario, formerly of Nice, trained for the first time under the orders of Francesco Farioli, after being officially announced as a reinforcement with a contract for the next four seasons.

As for the Spanish forward, he has left the treatment sessions and moved on to light training and gym work, raising expectations that he could be an option for the match scheduled for 8:30 pm on Saturday.

Samu suffered a muscle tear in the front of his left thigh and has been putting in extra hours of recovery at Olival and at a private center, in an attempt to recover in time. The recent signs are positive and within the blue and white universe, hope is growing that the forward might be called up. The process will be managed until the last minute, with all scenarios remaining open – starter, substitute, or in the stands – but it is certain that the player is making every effort to be available.

The same goes for Pepê, who is doing gym work. The player suffered a trauma to his right eye with an ocular injury on the eve of the match against Casa Pia and has been working to return in time for the third round. At the beginning of the week, he underwent a “shock” treatment, ocular cryotherapy – a procedure that uses very low temperatures to freeze and eliminate abnormal or damaged tissues in the eye, allowing the body to remove the injured cells and begin the healing process.
