FC Porto in race for PSV's versatile full-back Mauro Júnior | OneFootball

According to the Dutch newspaper “Voetbal International”, FC Porto has made contact with Mauro Júnior, PSV’s left-back, a player who is also attracting interest from other clubs, including Fenerbahçe and Leeds.

The same publication says the defender could leave the club in this transfer window for €12 million and that the Turkish side want to speed up the deal, although FC Porto remain in the race as well.

At 27, the Brazilian can also play in midfield, although his preferred position is on the left side of defence. He arrived at PSV in 2017/18, played for the B team and spent a year on loan at Heracles Almelo before establishing himself at the Eindhoven club. Last season, the Brazil youth international provided 11 assists and scored one goal in 37 matches.

At the end of May, Mauro Júnior had already been linked with the Dragons by the Dutch press, in a report that was denied at the time. In 2024, it should be recalled, he was also linked with Benfica.
