Froholdt, rising star of the year: “I’ve improved a lot in Portugal” | OneFootball

The FC Porto midfielder received yet another recognition after a highly successful season, marked by winning the league title, individual awards, and progress he links to his move to Portugal. The award is presented every year to the biggest talent in Danish football, through an evaluation process carried out by coaches, scouts, and sporting directors.

Victor Froholdt expressed satisfaction with the distinction, which comes after a season in which he helped the Dragons reclaim the national championship.

“It is always good to receive this kind of recognition,” said Froholdt, before reflecting on a season he considers special both collectively and individually.

“We improved a lot, we are a very young team and we managed to win the championship, we managed to give that achievement to the city, the club, and the fans. They had been waiting for this moment for several years and it was very special to be part of it,” he highlighted.

The move to FC Porto and to Portuguese football was pointed to by the Denmark international as one of the decisive elements in his progress. Froholdt believes the experience outside his country contributed to his growth on and off the pitch.

“I have improved a lot since I arrived in Portugal. Everything was new to me, a new country, a new culture, and I had to adapt quickly. I arrived at a big club, in a country that lives football very intensely,” he explained.

In addition to the title won by Porto, the midfielder also saw his performances recognized with individual distinctions, something he valued in his assessment of the season.

“Receiving the League’s Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year awards made this season even more special,” he stressed.

After establishing himself in Portugal, Froholdt now hopes to make the same impact with the Denmark national team.

“I want to do for my national team what I managed to do at FC Porto,” he said.

As for the future, the midfielder does not hide his ambition to continue improving and to fight for the biggest trophies in European football. “I want to win the Champions League,” he admitted.
