With the 2025/26 Premier League season looming, the 28-year-old Portuguese international has been spotted enjoying the warm climate and vibrant atmosphere of Portugal, balancing intense training with moments of relaxation as he gears up for a pivotal campaign with Wolves.
Life in England
Guedes, who returned to Wolves after loan spells with Valencia and Benfica, has been a key figure in the club’s attacking setup. His versatility, pace, and clinical finishing have made him a player to watch at Molineux, and his pre-season activities in Portugal signal his determination to hit the ground running when the new season kicks off.
Guedes has been training diligently in Portugal, utilizing the state-of-the-art facilities available in his native country. He’s been working closely with personal trainers to fine-tune his fitness, focusing on agility, strength, and endurance. Portugal’s warm weather and scenic training grounds have provided the perfect backdrop for Guedes to sharpen his skills, with tailored sessions designed to enhance his explosive pace and goal-scoring instincts.
Embracing Portuguese Culture
Beyond the training pitch, Guedes has been soaking up the joys of being back in Portugal. Known for his love of family and heritage, he has been spotted spending quality time with loved ones, enjoying traditional Portuguese cuisine, and even attending local cultural events. A recent Instagram story from Guedes showed him at a coastal restaurant in Cascais, savoring fresh seafood with the caption, “Home is where the heart is.”
These moments of relaxation are vital for Guedes, allowing him to recharge mentally before the grueling Premier League schedule begins. Portugal’s vibrant summer atmosphere has also given Guedes a chance to reconnect with his roots.
The winger, who hails from Benavente, has often spoken about the importance of his hometown in shaping his career. “Being back in Portugal always feels special,” Guedes said in a recent interview with Wolves’ official website. “The support from my family and the energy of this place give me the motivation to push harder.”
First League Game of the Season
As Wolves' first Premier League game of the new season against Manchester City approaches, Guedes’ time in Portugal is proving to be the perfect blend of hard work and relaxation. With his fitness on point and his spirits high, the Portuguese star is poised to make a significant impact for Wolves in the 2025/26 season. For now, as he enjoys the final days of pre-season in his homeland, Guedes is sending a clear message: he’s ready to shine.
