FC Porto: after Diogo Costa, there is another award winner at the Dragão

SAPO Notícias14 September 2026 at 13:48

Goalkeeper Diogo Costa was not the only FC Porto player to receive distinctions at the start of the season. Jakub Kiwior was distinguished by the Portuguese League coaches as August's Defender of the Month.

The Portuguese central defender was thus awarded the Defender of the Month award, adding this recognition to what had already been attributed to Diogo Costa in the previous month.

Kiwior arrived at FC Porto in January 2023, coming from Sparta Warsaw, and has been an important piece in Porto's defense.

This recognition comes at a time when FC Porto continues to compete in the Portuguese League, with the team demonstrating defensive consistency that deserved the recognition of opposing coaches.

Why this matters

FC Porto fans learn that another player on the team is standing out individually, which may be a sign of the team's good defensive dynamics. This information is relevant for those who follow the Portuguese League and the performances of Porto's players.
