The news comes as a blow to the team, who were looking to build on their recent success by challenging for major honours this season. However, the club has already lost key players such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Bernardo Silva to other clubs, so any additional setbacks will be difficult to overcome.

He also highlighted the importance of having depth in the squad, stating that it was important to have players who can step up when needed.
The club has also announced that they are working hard to find replacements for Almeida, with several options being considered. One option is to look abroad, where there are many talented strikers available who could help fill the void left by Almeida.
Overall, the latest injury update is a reminder of the challenges that FC Porto will face this season. While the team may not be able to field the same level of talent as previous seasons, they still have the ability to compete at the highest levels of football.
