Namaso has already earned Porto €5m, now it hinges on Auxerre staying up | OneFootball

Danny Namaso has already met the appearance condition that could make his permanent transfer to Auxerre mandatory, under the loan deal agreed with FC Porto.

The forward, who joined the French club on loan in the summer of 2025, has already gone beyond the 60% of Ligue 1 minutes required in the agreement. According to the available data, Namaso has played 1,896 minutes out of a possible 2,340, which represents around 81% usage. Even when projected across all 34 league matches, the Cameroon international is already above the minimum required.

Even so, the mandatory purchase clause, set at 5 million euros, will only be triggered if Auxerre secure their place in Ligue 1. That remains the decisive factor for FC Porto to guarantee the financial return.

At this stage of the season, with several matches still to be played, Auxerre remain involved in the relegation battle, currently sitting 16th in the table. The French club’s stay in the top flight will therefore be decisive for the outcome of the process.

The agreement between the two clubs also includes additional variable compensation, which could increase the overall value of the deal, although the minimum amount guaranteed by the mandatory purchase is fixed at 5 million euros, provided the two established conditions are met.
