Return ever closer: Samu all smiles in FC Porto training | OneFootball

Samu Aghehowa appeared at FC Porto training this Thursday with a smile on his face, an encouraging sign in the final stage of his recovery from the serious injury he suffered to his right knee.

The Spanish striker was injured in the derby against Sporting in February 2026, suffering a complete tear of the anterior cruciate ligament. He later underwent surgery in Madrid.

After a lengthy recovery process, Samu is already working with the ball on the pitch and taking important steps toward returning to competition. The relaxed attitude he showed in the Dragons’ training session is another positive sign regarding his physical progress.

Francesco Farioli's team are continuing the striker’s gradual reintegration, although no specific timetable has yet been given for his return to official matches.
