João Afonso's arrival leaves FC Porto with too many keepers | OneFootball

FC Porto confirmed this Monday the signing of João Afonso, a goalkeeper who stood out while playing for Santa Clara, where he even made his debut for the first team. The Invicta club now has five players for the A team’s goalkeeping position, although there do not seem to be places for everyone.

Diogo Costa and Cláudio Ramos were the goalkeepers in Francesco Farioli’s plans, while João Costa has alternated between the main squad and the secondary team. Samuel Portugal is also part of FC Porto’s squad, as he has a valid contract until the summer of 2027.

The Brazilian goalkeeper was loaned to Al Akhdoud, where he made 27 appearances and conceded 61 goals. João Afonso will therefore have to compete for a place, and the possibility of him joining the B team, which plays in the Segunda Liga, cannot be ruled out.
