Victor Froholdt once again stands out at FC Porto and achieved a remarkable feat in his very first month competing for the Dragons. The Danish midfielder, just 19 years old, clinched the "hat trick" of Liga Portugal awards for August: Player of the Month, Midfielder of the Month, and Young Player of the Month.
Elected for the first time by the main coaches of the Primeira Liga, Froholdt was a starter in all four matches played by the blue and whites during this period, totaling 358 minutes on the field, one goal, and two assists – numbers that highlight the young player's immediate impact on FC Porto's model.
With 25.40% of the votes, the Dane surpassed Clayton (Rio Ave), who received 23.02%, and Morten Hjulmand (Sporting), who completed the podium with 6.35%, thus securing the Player of the Month trophy.
In the Midfielder of the Month award, FC Porto's number 8 was even more dominant, garnering 39.68% of the preferences, ahead of Luís Esteves (Gil Vicente), with 11.11%, and Fredrik Aursnes (Benfica), with 7.14%.
Finally, Froholdt completed the trio of distinctions by also being elected Young Player of the Month for August, with 34.93% of the votes, surpassing teammate William Gomes (14.29%) and Pablo (Gil Vicente, 13.49%).
These distinctions confirm the excellent start of the midfielder in Portugal and reinforce FC Porto's investment in a talent that, in just a few months, has won the confidence of Sérgio Conceição and the recognition of opponents.
