Farioli on the injury “epidemic”: “We’ll speak to the president…” | OneFootball

After the FC Porto-Nacional match (1-0), related to the fifth round of the Primeira Liga, Francesco Farioli spoke.

Concerned about the high number of injuries before a demanding period? “We know that, unfortunately, with the schedule of recent years, not only at FC Porto, but it is an epidemic in professional football. These players work, recover, change coaches, change training methods, with physical and mental stimuli… we've had some bad luck with these injuries. Today a tendon injury, we have four with knee contusion problems… we hope to end this trend, but when an injury occurs, we have to push the others even more. It is important for us to have more longevity in the team, so we will talk to the president and the club to see if we can do something to help the team for the next period.”
