Vasco Sousa’s girlfriend reveals his 39-day ordeal backstage | OneFootball

Vasco Sousa has been going through a difficult time. On December 14th, he suffered an injury that could jeopardize his career as a professional footballer, but he didn't give up, and the 'reward' is now starting to appear.

The player, trained at FC Porto, returned home after 21 trips to the operating room in just 39 days, a period marked by many frustrations.

Joana Guise, the athlete's partner, shared the recent episodes on social media and highlighted the determination of the 22-year-old player.

“When we are little, we are told stories about superheroes, but no one talks about those who don't wear capes. Silent heroes, who keep going even when the future hangs by a thread,” began the player's partner, who was loaned by FC Porto to Moreirense, writing on social media.

“Those whose strength is not measured by the ability to save the world, but by the courage to face uncertainty and start over. It's about one of these heroes, who doesn't appear in stories, that I want to talk about,” she reinforced, before revealing the number of times they went to the operating room: “After 39 days and 21 trips to the operating room, we are home, my love,” she concluded.

It should be remembered that the midfielder fractured the fibula of his right leg on December 14th, in a match against Benfica, a game that Moreirense lost 4-0, in Moreira de Cónegos.

FC Porto even re-registered Vasco Sousa in the most recent update of Liga Portugal, an indication that the loan was canceled due to this very serious injury.

His former colleague at Moreirense, Maracás, did not forget the Porto player and dedicated the victory against Santa Clara: “I want to dedicate the victory to our former teammate, Vasquinho,” he said upon receiving the man of the match award.
