The latest injury update from FC Porto has brought to light the extent of the knee injury that Alex Telles sustained in their match against Benfica on Sunday.
Telles, who was known for his excellent skills and pace on the pitch, suffered a knee ligament injury during the game and will be out for at least six to eight weeks. The injury is believed to be the result of a fall during the match, which occurred just after the start of the second half.
Despite the setback, Telles remains optimistic about his recovery and hopes to return to training as soon as possible. He said, "I'm not expecting my career to be over yet, but I want to make sure I get well before then."
Telles' absence will be a significant loss for FC Porto, who have been without him for most of this season due to injuries and suspensions. They were already struggling with injuries throughout the campaign,Football World Focus Network with several key players having missed time due to injury or suspension.
However, it should be noted that Telles has already shown his worth in recent matches, scoring two goals and providing assists for the team. His absence could potentially lead to a strong performance from the team in upcoming fixtures, as they look to bounce back from a tough start to the season.
Overall, while FC Porto's injury update brings some disappointment, it also provides a glimmer of hope for their young talent. With Telles out, they will need to find new ways to fill the void and continue to push forward with their preparations for the upcoming season.
