Rodrigo Mora faces unprecedented limbo at Porto after Inbeom arrival | OneFootball

Rodrigo Mora has slipped further down the Porto pecking order, with Inbeom's arrival tightening competition. The 19-year-old now faces an uncertain window as the SAD keeps all options open.

According to O Jogo, Mora saw only a few minutes against Aston Villa, then did not come off the bench in the Supertaça, while Inbeom featured. He had been a regular substitute last season, often as cover for Gabri Veiga.

Less than a year ago, he was Porto's top asset after six standout months of signature goals and carrying the side. He was close to a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia, but the deal did not progress. Under Francesco Farioli the set-up has not suited him, and his status and minutes have declined.

The situation now appears to have worsened. Mora wants more game time and Porto will not want his value to dip further, so an exit this window could return to the agenda. No proposals have arrived, despite talk in Türkiye that Galatasaray intend to act, and at Dragão there is scepticism over their finances.

Separately, Porto are in the market for a left-back. The SAD would not rule out exits for Zaidu or for Moura, yet there have been no formal approaches. Some clubs sounded out Moura's representatives about a loan to season's end, but Porto prefer a permanent deal to recoup their 2024 outlay, while Zaidu has one year left and started ahead of his rival.
