FC Porto eye Ponomarenko, but Dynamo Kyiv want €30m for talent | OneFootball

FC Porto have identified Matvii Ponomarenko as a target to strengthen their attack, but Dynamo Kyiv are demanding a high fee for any potential transfer.

The Ukrainian club want between €25 million and €30 million for the striker, a price range that has already led them to reject a Galatasaray offer worth around €20 million. Ponomarenko is seen as one of the brightest young prospects in Ukrainian football and is highly rated on the market.

At this stage, Porto’s interest has not yet progressed to formal contact or the opening of negotiations with Dynamo Kyiv. Even so, the striker’s name remains on the radar of the blue-and-white hierarchy, who are monitoring the player’s situation closely.

Ponomarenko has been described as one of Dynamo Kyiv’s standout attacking players, which helps explain the financial bar set by the Ukrainian club. For now, any move by FC Porto will depend on the room they have to meet the selling club’s demands.

The SAD led by André Villas-Boas are therefore continuing to assess options for the forward line, in a case that is only likely to develop if conditions arise to bring the two sides closer to Dynamo Kyiv’s asking price.
