FC Porto ready million-euro deal for Oskar Pietuszewski | OneFootball

FC Porto is putting together an operation to secure the future of one of its biggest prospects: Oskar Pietuszewski. The young Polish international, who recently joined the Dragons from Jagiellonia Bialystok, has already started attracting the attention of Europe’s top clubs, and Porto’s board has no intention of letting him leave any time soon. At just 17 years old and with a contract valid until 2029, the creative winger is expected to see his release clause rise to very high figures – the proposal under consideration points to an increase that could exceed €60 million.

Oskar Pietuszewski, who turns 18 next month, has shown remarkable progress since arriving at FC Porto, especially under the guidance of Francesco Farioli. The youngster’s technical quality and reading of the game have put him on the radar of several top clubs, which are closely following every step of the winger. Faced with this scenario, the Porto hierarchy has moved forward with a contract renewal that could extend his deal until 2031, strengthening the protection around the player and significantly raising his release clause.

FC Porto’s strategy is clear: to protect an asset who could become a key part of the team’s future and, at the same time, maintain a strong position in the market. With the European market keeping a close eye on emerging talents, the club does not want to repeat mistakes from the past and is willing to invest to keep Pietuszewski at the Dragão.

Beyond this case, youth football continues to show positive signs at FC Porto, with left-back Pedro Rodrigues, just 14 years old, signing a youth contract, confirming that the commitment to younger age groups remains a priority at the club. At the same time, according to ‘TEAMtalk’, the blue-and-whites’ goalkeeper is also among the Reds’ main targets for next season, highlighting the growing interest in Porto’s talent.

In the wider European football landscape, there are also other relevant developments, such as NAC Breda’s case against the Federation over the nationality of a Go Ahead Eagles player, or the appointment of a 53-year-old Portuguese coach by a Cypriot club, signs of the constant movement in the market and of the importance of securing talents like Pietuszewski before it is too late.

FC Porto is therefore acting quickly and decisively to ensure that Oskar Pietuszewski not only remains at the club, but also sees his importance recognized through a contract suited to his potential. Raising the clause beyond €60 million is not just an administrative detail: it is a clear message to Europe that FC Porto is locking down a talent with the qualities to define an era.
