Samu has already flown to Spain, will decide where to have surgery

Samu is required to undergo surgery; the only thing left to decide is whether the procedure will take place in Portugal or Spain.

For this reason, the FC Porto forward traveled this Thursday to the capital of his home country to seek a second medical opinion regarding the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, suffered against Sporting last Monday.

It should be recalled that Samu began to feel pain near the end of the first half, was immediately examined by the blue and white medical department, continued playing, and ended up being substituted at halftime.

The Spanish international will not play again this season and will also miss the 2026 World Cup.
