Trabzonspor keen on Eustáquio, but Porto yet to receive an offer | OneFootball

The Turkish press yesterday linked Stephen Eustáquio with a move to Trabzonspor, a club that is preparing an offer to FC Porto in the region of seven to eight million euros. So far, this proposal has not been formally submitted to the board, which says it is open to negotiations if necessary.

Francesco Farioli holds the Canadian international in high regard and sees him as aligned with the spirit he wants to instill in the team. At 28 years old, Eustáquio brings experience and time at the club—qualities that are rare in the squad—and demonstrates a sense of solidarity and daily commitment that the coach values; in each of the three matches played so far, he was called from the bench, playing about half an hour. On the other hand, Farioli had already identified the need to sign a midfielder with defensive characteristics, so a possible departure of the Canadian would further accentuate that gap.

From the player's perspective, the Turkish league is known for offering very attractive salaries while maintaining a competitive level. At Trabzonspor, Porto’s number 6 could have more regular playing time, but everything will depend on the amounts offered to FC Porto.
