FC Porto updates: Seko Fofana set for debut, Martim Fernandes in treatment | OneFootball

After the defeat in Rio Maior against Casa Pia (2-1) – the first in the league – FC Porto returned to Olival on Tuesday morning, already with midfielder Seko Fofana integrated.

With the home match against Sporting scheduled for Monday, Francesco Farioli could not count on Nehuén Pérez and Luuk de Jong – “both undergoing treatment and gym work” – nor on Martim Fernandes, who was undergoing recovery work and “treatment for plantar fasciitis.” It should be recalled that the full-back left at halftime during the game in Rio Maior.

Given these absences, the coach called up center-back Gabriel Brás and right-back Dinis Rodrigues, both developed in the B team.

The Dragons will resume training at Olival on Thursday morning. The derby against Sporting, corresponding to the 21st round of the league, will take place on Monday at 8:45 p.m., with the stadium sold out. FC Porto leads the league with 55 points, four more than the Lions.
