Pietuszewski on injury return, “I already feel at home at Porto” | OneFootball

Oskar Pietuszewski has yet to make his debut this season due to a recurrence of the muscle injury he suffered in July, but he revealed this Wednesday that he is close to being available again for Francesco Farioli at FC Porto.

In an interview with TVP Sport, the young Polish winger admitted that his return to competition could happen within a “matter of days.” Even so, he did not hide his frustration at not being able to help the team in Tuesday’s match against Manchester City, which ended in a 2-0 defeat in the Champions League.

“It is difficult to set an exact date for my return. However, I think it is more a matter of days than weeks. Everything is going according to plan. The most important thing is to recover from the injury one hundred percent and prevent it from happening again in the future. It is a pity not to be able to play in a game like this, but we still have many big games ahead of us,” he said, also with a possible Poland call-up in mind for the start of League B of the Nations League, which includes four matches between the end of September and the beginning of October.

“I hope to be fit again by then. Playing with the eagle on my chest is always an honor. I hope I can recover in time,” he said.

The winger also said that he is fully settled in the city of Porto and expressed his gratitude to compatriots Jan Bednarek and Jakub Kiwior for the support they have given him since his arrival at the Dragons.

“The guys have supported me a lot and we all help each other. That is fantastic, because whatever happens, we know we can count on one another. And when we have the chance to play together, it becomes even more special. I am very happy to be here and to be able to compete in these competitions. I already feel at home in Porto. The weather is great, the people are incredible. Now it is about keeping on playing, making the most of everything this city and this club have to offer, and enjoying this moment,” he concluded.
