Froholdt and Pietuszewski train on day off for Benfica clash | OneFootball

The champions were entitled to a day off, although not the entire squad stopped. Just a few days before the Clássico, Victor Froholdt and Oskar Pietuszewski trained this Monday at Olival, with the match against Benfica, scheduled for Sunday, already on the horizon, Maisfutebol confirmed.

The Danish midfielder is completing the protocol related to a concussion, following the heavy collision suffered against Moreirense, which required him to go to hospital. The Polish winger, meanwhile, is in the final stages of recovery from a muscle injury in his right thigh, which has still prevented him from making his debut this season.

Zaidu and João Costa were also present this morning at FC Porto’s training centre in Vila Nova de Gaia. The defender underwent treatment and gym work after the adductor injury suffered two weeks ago, while João Costa continues his rehabilitation programme after meniscus surgery carried out on Saturday.

After Sunday’s practice match against Académica, and the day off granted on Monday, the Porto squad begin preparing for the Clássico this Tuesday at Olival under Farioli’s orders.
