Rodrigo Mora back on the pitch for FC Porto after muscle injury | OneFootball

Rodrigo Mora carried out conditioned training today with the rest of FC Porto’s squad after suffering a muscle injury that ruled him out of the Portugal national team’s friendlies against Mexico and the United States.

The 18-year-old midfielder had been substituted at half-time in the ‘Dragons’’ home match against Stuttgart, in the second leg of the Europa League round of 16, after complaining of pain in his left thigh.

Rodrigo Mora, who had already missed FC Porto’s next Primeira Liga match away to Sporting Braga, was called up by Roberto Martínez for the national team fixtures, but was ultimately released to continue his recovery under the supervision of the club’s medical staff.

The player, who had been undergoing treatment, moved on to conditioned training today and still has a chance of returning to action in the ‘Dragons’’ next match, against Famalicão on Saturday, in the 28th round of the league.

In addition, Diogo Costa, Nehuén Pérez, Luuk de Jong and Samu also remain on FC Porto’s medical report.

This morning, Francesco Farioli’s squad, without 10 players away on international duty with their respective national teams, trained once again alongside the B team at the Jorge Costa Training and Sports Development Centre in Olival, and will resume work on Tuesday.

Top of the Primeira Liga with 72 points, FC Porto host fifth-placed Famalicão, on 45, at the Estádio do Dragão in Porto on Saturday, from 20:30, in a match for the 28th round.
