FC Porto welcome Samu back after knee ligament rupture

This Wednesday morning brought a “special return” to the Jorge Costa Training and Sports Development Center. Recently having undergone surgery, Samu returned to Olival to begin his recovery and was warmly welcomed by his teammates.

Thiago Silva and Oskar Pietuszewski were among the first to cross paths with the Spanish forward and offered him plenty of words of encouragement.

It should be noted that Samu had to travel to Madrid for surgery due to a torn cruciate ligament in his knee, an injury suffered in the Clássico against Sporting (1-1).

The Spanish international now sees his participation in the 2026 World Cup at risk and is expected to return to the pitch only next season.
