Gabriel Veron found it difficult to make his mark at Porto and was even involved in one incident early in the season when he was injured in a friends tournament while on holiday in Brazil. Although the striker is considered recovered, he left with complaints in the pre-season game against Wolverhampton (right adductor injury) and has not yet left Porto’s medical department.
Although on Monday the Dragons declared the player practically healthy (he underwent comprehensive physical training), on Tuesday they only returned the Brazilian for treatment.
Veron is the most significant absence from Porto’s Champions League squad, which also left out goalkeepers Samuel Portugal (signed from Portimonense in 2022 for €2.5 million for 55 percent passing) and Francisco Maixedo.
