Aston Villa, Man Utd on Alert as Porto Looks to Boost PSG Target’s Release Clause to €100M | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain have a history of bringing top Portuguese talent to the French capital, and they may look to continue that trend this summer.

With strong ties to Portugal through sporting advisor Luis Campos, PSG has previously signed players like Vitinha, João Neves, and Gonçalo Ramos.

CaughtOffside previously reported that Porto wonderkid Rodrigo Mora is drawing attention from some of Europe’s biggest clubs, despite being just 17 years old.

Arsenal, Manchester United, Real Madrid, PSG, and Aston Villa are all reportedly interested in the versatile player, who can play as an attacking midfielder or winger.

Mora currently has a £55 million release clause in his Porto contract, but CaughtOffside also reports that it could rise to around £70 million by 2027.

Mora, a versatile playmaker who can also play on the wings, is reportedly attracting the attention of Luis Campos. According to Portuguese outlets O Jogo and Record (h/t Canal Supporters), PSG’s interest in Mora won’t be enough.

If the club decides to pursue him, they must contend with FC Porto’s desire to extend his contract and include a release clause between €80 million and €100 million.

PSG are reportedly ready to trigger Rodrigo Mora’s €45 million release clause. The young talent, already being called the next big thing in Portuguese football, is attracting plenty of interest.

In response, FC Porto are said to be unwilling to let him leave for that price and plan to renegotiate his release clause, aiming to raise it to €70 million once he turns 18.
