Zaidu Sanusi Won’t Play in FC Porto vs Sporting Lisbon Cup Semi-Final Second Leg

FC Porto faces a significant challenge ahead of their upcoming Portuguese Cup semi-final second leg against Sporting Lisbon, as Zaidu Sanusi has been ruled out due to an ankle injury.

FC Porto’s head coach, Francesco Farioli, confirmed Sanusi’s absence from the upcoming match. In an update shared through the club’s official communications, Farioli addressed the situation regarding the left-back.

“Zaidu will remain out as he is still recovering,” the Porto boss stated.
