Mora injury concern, Porto dominate Team of the Year

Rodrigo Mora's recurring nightmare

Three left thigh injuries in 15 months. That is the grim reality for Rodrigo Mora, and your medical staff are now digging into why it keeps happening. For a young winger who should be building momentum, this pattern is a serious red flag (1). No timeline has been set for his return, but Farioli will be desperate to get him right, not just fit.

Porto dominate Team of the Year

Five Porto players made the I Liga Team of the Year. Sporting have four. Benfica? None. It is a statement of the quality running through your squad right now, and a reflection of the season that delivered the title (3).

André Silva: unfinished business?

The noise around an André Silva return is getting louder. Reports suggest a move back to Porto is being discussed, with Champions League football and the right timing seen as key ingredients (5) (6). Silva himself reportedly feels there are scores to settle with his Porto story. One to watch.

Francisco Moura speaks out

Francisco Moura has reactivated his Instagram account after taking heat following the draw with Benfica. His message: 'injustice, accountability and demands' (7). The left-back clearly felt the criticism went too far, and he is not staying quiet about it.
