FC Porto has updated the transparency portal and disclosed the amounts involved in this summer’s transfers. The information was made public on the Dragons’ website.
As shown in the images below, the SAD chaired by André Villas-Boas made a notable profit from the sale of Francisco Conceição to Juventus, especially since the Portugal international waived 20 percent of the net value of the transfer. Although Gestifute – Jorge Mendes’s agency – received €3.04 million in intermediary commission, the blue and white coffers took in €28.9 million.
In the other permanent departures, FC Porto retained percentages of future capital gains or of the economic rights in future sales of 11 players: Abraham Marcus (40 percent), Denis Gutu (50), Fábio Cardoso (25), Fran Navarro (25), Gonçalo Borges (15), João Mário (10), Jorge Meireles (20), Otávio (15), Romário Baró (40), Wendel (20) and Zé Pedro (50).
As for loans, Auxerre pays a fixed amount of €1 million and a variable €550,000 for the loan of Dany Namaso, in an agreement that allows the French club to acquire 60 percent of the economic rights for €5 million (plus €0.7 million in variables), a clause that becomes mandatory depending on the outcome of the season.
In June, the situation of Vasco Sousa, a midfielder loaned to Moreirense, will also be decided; they have a purchase option of €8 million for 80 percent of the economic rights. As for Samuel Portugal, the goalkeeper can remain at Al Akhdoud if the Saudis trigger the €1.7 million purchase option.
The decision on Iván Jaime should be quicker, since Montreal can exercise the purchase option of €5 million for 80 percent of the economic rights until January 31. Alternatively, the Canadian club can keep the player if it pays €5.5 million by May 31—a clause that is activated based on objectives.
Finally in this section, André Franco’s loan to Chicago Fire ends on December 31. The American club holds a purchase option for 50 percent of the economic rights for €1.1 million, plus €1 million in variables.
In the chapter of “temporary arrivals,” defender Jakub Kiwior was loaned by Arsenal until June, with FC Porto having the option to sign the Pole permanently by paying €22 million (€17m + €5m in variables). In that scenario, the London club retains €2 million on a future transfer.
In permanent signings, the release clauses of Samu and Borja Sainz stand out: €100 million. The Dragons completed the acquisition of the entirety of Samu’s economic rights from Atlético Madrid, investing a further €17 million.
