Former Reading striker Danny Loader trained with the senior Porto squad this week.

Loader signed for Porto a year ago and was outstanding for the B team last season.

And after a run of excellent performances, Porto coach Sergio Conceicao called him to senior training on Friday for the first time.

An England youth international, Loader has played primarily as a winger for Porto B.

And the youngster cites Porto star Luis Diaz as a role-model: "He's someone I watch".
