  • FC Porto said Danish midfielder Victor Froholdt suffered a concussion during Friday’s victory over Moreirense.

  • Brazilian player Guilherme Liberato received a red card for the elbow that struck Froholdt in the head.

Victor Froholdt was carried off the field after suffering a concussion during FC Porto’s victory over Moreirense on Friday.

The Danish midfielder regained consciousness on the pitch before being taken to hospital, where he will undergo examinations, FC Porto said on the social media platform X. Images from the Portuguese league match showed Froholdt being carried away.

Froholdt was struck in the head by an elbow from Brazilian player Guilherme Liberato late in the game. Liberato was subsequently shown a red card.

Froholdt was one of Porto’s best players last season and has also made a strong start to the new campaign. He scored the only goal in Porto’s recent Portuguese Super Cup final victory over Torreense. Porto currently leads Portugal’s Primeira Liga.

The Dane joined the Portuguese club from FC Copenhagen last July and has since made several appearances for the Denmark men’s national team.
