Setback on return to training after the Super Cup | OneFootball

After two days of rest, FC Porto returned this Tuesday to the CTFD Jorge Costa, in Olival, to begin preparing for the opening round of the league campaign. The Dragons face Alverca on Sunday at 6:00 pm.

Alberto Costa suffered a bruise to his right thigh and was limited to treatment and modified training. Even so, according to information gathered by A BOLA, the right-back is expected to be available for the match against the Ribatejo side.

The defender had already taken a knock in the same area in July, after the training camp in England, but recovered in time to face Torreense in the Super Cup. In Tuesday morning’s training session, the Dragons’ medical department chose not to take any risks and kept the player, who wears the number 20 shirt, out of full training.

Cláudio Ramos and Jan Bednarek remain under treatment, while Vasco Sousa, André Miranda and Samu continue with modified training. The five players therefore remain on the national champions’ injury list.

The squad coached by Francesco Farioli will train again on Wednesday, once more in Olival.
