FC Porto's Steven Defour reveals secret dental appliance – Primeira Liga News
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 midfielder, Steven Defour, revealed that he utilized a dental appliance in order to keep himself fit and free from injuries. The Belgian insisted that the device had made him feel better and had changed his life.
Les Rouge International, Steven Defour made the switch from Standard Liege to FC Porto this summer. The highly sought after midfielder had been linked with the likes of Manchester United but in the end he chose to sign for the Portistas.
At Estadio do Dragao, Defour has become an integral part of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vitor-c36281 Pereira’s plans for the season and is able to make the team on a regular basis. However one thing which has eluded him is his niggling injury woes which threatened to derail his career back
in the Belgian Pro League.
The 23-year-old suffered a leg break in 2009 and it almost cost him his footballing ambitions. But he has since recovered and is now utilizing a dental appliance to keep himself off the treatment table.
Although details of the device have not been revealed, Defour claims that it was recommended to him by Porto medical staff and he has used it to make himself feel better when he has any injury problems.
"When I did the medical examinations at FC Porto, they told me to use it for a month. After that, I usually only get to eat. It has changed my life. I have suffered injuries but physically I feel much better now,” he said.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Racing-c40298 Genk man also commented on the limited places in the Dragao team and said that it was for the betterment of the club and everyone should put in the effort to make the starting line-up.
"Competition in midfield is very strong. We must work hard to grasp the opportunities. It is good for the team that everyone should put in the effort. Who does not understand it, their loss. I know what I should do,” Steven Defour was quoted as saying.
While nothing certain about the effects of the dental appliance have been revealed, other users include football luminaries such as Portuguese captain http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629, whose endorsement means that the product works after all.
