Porto defender Pedro Emanuel will be out for the rest of a season already decimated by injury. The player has been out since a pre-season friendly against Manchester City in August.

An Achilles injury forced him out of the match and initially a period of recuperation was thought to be sufficient.
However, the partial tear has been operated upon and Porto doctors have confirmed that he will not play again this campaign.
He will be unable to train for four months and will not see action until next season - but Porto have faith in the player as they earlier agreed a contract extension through to June 2008.
