Rafa wanted a 3-year deal, FC Porto said no | OneFootball

Rafa is expected to leave FC Porto after the Portuguese international and the club failed to reach an agreement for a contract renewal. At 34 years old, the player wanted a three-year contract, but the Dragons offered only one season with an option for another. According to reports, he has already informed his teammates in the locker room that he will not continue at FC Porto.

With more than 450 matches wearing the club's shirt, Rafa is one of the club’s greatest icons and a key figure in its recent history, with over 20 trophies won, including a Champions League title in 2023, achieved in Viana do Castelo.

Contrary to what was reported yesterday, Benfica is said to have declared no interest in the player. OC Barcelos offered him a three-year contract, but the forward, who is from Barcelos and trained in the Minho region, is looking for an offer with better financial terms.
