Just like during previous breaks for national team commitments, FC Porto is once again facing a significant wave of absences: several players will be away from Olival for the next week and a half.

In addition to the Portuguese internationals, who are split between the senior national team (Diogo Costa) and the under-21s (Martim Fernandes and Rodrigo Mora), seven more call-ups were announced this Friday. The highlight goes to winger Borja Sainz, who will represent the Basque Country against Palestine in Bilbao on the 15th of this month.

List of players called up for foreign national teams, announced this Friday:

Bednarek and Kiwior (Poland) – Matches against the Netherlands and Malta (14 and 17/11)

Deniz Gül (Turkey) – Bulgaria and Spain (15 and 18/11)

Samu (Spain) – Georgia and Turkey (15 and 18/11)

Borja Sainz (Basque Country) – Palestine (15/11)

Interestingly, two foreign national teams have called up players from the Dragons’ B team. Angola has called up Domingos Andrade for a friendly against Argentina on the 14th of this month, while Japanese player Kotaro Nagata joins Japan’s U21 team for matches against England’s U20 team and Bournemouth (on the 14th and 17th of this month, respectively).
