Vasco Sousa is facing a major battle to return to the pitch. His girlfriend, Joana Guise, shared the FC Porto player’s struggle (his loan to Moreirense has already ended) in an emotional Instagram post that drew a lot of attention and numerous comments from sports personalities.
Among those who reacted was Richard Ríos. The Benfica midfielder, who is also recovering – from a traumatic anterior dislocation of his right shoulder – wrote “Stay strong” to the Dragons’ player.
Several former FC Porto players also commented on the post. Otávio, who shared the locker room with Vasco for a short period, wrote: “Stay strong, my boy.” Helton wrote a longer message addressed to Vasco and Joana: “Stories are built, not bought on the Internet. Congratulations to both of you, you are even stronger now. God bless you. Always cheering for you, champ,” wrote the former goalkeeper.
And Cláudio Ramos, backup goalkeeper to Diogo Costa in Francesco Farioli’s team, also left words of encouragement: “Let’s go, Vasco Sousa. This is just another battle you will overcome.”
