Juan http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Manuel-c23383 Iturbe likely to make his comeback for FC Porto against Academica – Report
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 in the upcoming game against Academica. The starlet was injured in his first outing in the Portuguese Cup and has been sidelined for over a month; however he is expected
to make his return to the side this weekend.
Touted to be the next ‘Lionel Messi’, expectations surroundings Juan Manuel Iturbe were sky high when he first arrived at Estadio do Dragao. Plying his trade in South http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/America-c38390, he garnered a lot of attentions with his performances and eventually ended up
signing for FC Porto.
While he joined the club in the transfer window, it took some time for the youngster to make his debut for the Portistas and was fielded by Vitor Pereira in the Portuguese Cup tie against Pero Pinheiro on the 15th of October.
The decision seemed to have paid off, as Iturbe put in a superb display; however his debut was cut short as he suffered an untimely fracture in his left elbow. The injury immediately forced him off the pitch and he hasn’t been able to feature since.
However that is expected to change this weekend, as the player is on course to make a full recovery and will take part in the upcoming Portuguese Cup fixture against Academica.
Porto’s medical team checked out the player yesterday and after deeming him fully fit, allowed him to take part in training without any restrictions.
Although he has resumed practice sessions, the 18-year-old will still be lacking in match fitness and will take his time in getting back in to top form. Solely for that reason, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vitor-c36281 Pereira might not name the former Quilmes in his starting lineup against
the Students.
With a glowing reputation and point to prove, Juan Manuel Iturbe, will be keen to play a part in FC Porto’s upcoming game against Academica.
If he does indeed put in a scintillating performance, that just might stir the interest of Spanish giants http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, who are reportedly monitoring the player’s situation in the Primeira Liga and are keen to entice him to Camp Nou in the future.
