Porto, one of the strongest teams in Portuguese soccer, has been showing more and more courage in the recent past. Not long ago, they swept Binfiga 5-0 in the league, rekindling the team's hope, and in the first round of the Europa League, they also took a 1-0 lead over Arsenal. The rise of Brazilian winger Galenu has been the key to Porto's rebound. The 26-year-old talent has reportedly completed the naturalization process and is expected to join the Portuguese national team.
Born in Brazil, Galenu joined Porto at the age of 19. After a few bounces around, he was loaned out to Braga. However, he returned to Porto two years ago and quickly became the centerpiece of the team. In his last six matches, he has scored six goals, including a worldie against Arsenal. Earlier in the season, he also contributed two goals against Benfica, which was undoubtedly the pinnacle of his career.
Now naturalized as a Portuguese citizen, Galenu is rumored to be included in the new roster of the Portuguese national team. For this first call-up to the national team, he is full of expectations. Portuguese leader Martinez also spoke highly of him: "For Portugal, Galenu is a very valuable player, my Italian-style direct tactics, his right-footed kick on the left flank of the performance of the full range of Porto coach has been highly recommended to me him!"
