FC Porto new signing reacts to first training: “It was tough” | OneFootball

Inbeom Hwang was presented, signed, and went straight into action: the South Korean midfielder already took part in FC Porto’s training session on Tuesday morning at the Jorge Costa Training and Football Development Center, not wanting to delay the integration process.

It was the national champions’ second training session since returning from their camp in England. Hwang’s presence was the big news, with the player admitting the effort required on his first day.

“It was tough,” he told the club’s media after training: “The running test was very tough, but I’m happy I managed to do it.”

The Dragons’ new signing also praised the way he was welcomed by his new teammates. “They welcomed me very well, everyone was very kind to me, so I’m looking forward to the next few days,” he said with a smile, anticipating a highly intense period.

FC Porto return to the pitch this Wednesday, with two friendlies scheduled: against Penafiel at 10:00 a.m., behind closed doors, and against Gil Vicente in Barcelos at 8:00 p.m., a match that will be broadcast by Sport TV. On Saturday, the Blue and Whites face Aston Villa at the Estádio do Dragão at 8:00 p.m., before taking on São João de Ver on Sunday at 10:00 a.m.

The club also confirmed that “Martim Fernandes (workload management), Vasco Sousa (modified training), André Miranda (treatment) and Samu (modified training)” remain on the team’s medical report.
