Luuk de Jong had a memorable weekend. The FC Porto forward was honored by PSV and admitted that the ceremony left him «emotional», also emphasizing his desire to return to the field soon wearing the blue and white jersey.

The Dutch international told FC Porto's media: «It was a great honor. There were moments when I truly felt emotional. It was very good to return, see everyone, and be able to say goodbye as I should».

«At the end of the season, I still didn't know what I wanted to do or where I would go. My contract ended, and there was no farewell. So, it was important to be able to return now and close that cycle,» he added.

In the process of physical recovery, de Jong assured that the tribute gave him «extra fuel» to quickly return to Farioli's options.

The forward also emphasized: «Being injured is always difficult, we spend a lot of time alone in the gym. But this moment gave me even more energy to work and return as quickly as possible. I want to help FC Porto and leave my mark here, win titles, and repay the trust they gave me».

The Dutch player remains in treatment and does not have a set date to return to competition, but he assures that the motivation «has never been greater».
