Another striker on FC Porto’s radar: young Ukrainian could cost €25m | OneFootball

With Samu Aghehowa unavailable at the start of the season, FC Porto are widening their range of options beyond former Benfica player Marcos Leonardo, seeking another attacking reinforcement. At a time when they have already secured the signing of André Silva, the Dragons are showing interest in Dynamo Kyiv striker Matvii Ponomarenko, although they have not yet made any formal offer.

The 20-year-old already has three caps and one goal for Ukraine, attracting the attention of clubs such as Borussia Dortmund and Galatasaray, which even submitted a €20 million bid. Even so, the offer was rejected by the Ukrainian club, which values the centre-forward at between €25 million and €30 million.

Matvii Ponomarenko enjoyed a breakthrough season in 2025/26, recording 16 goals and one assist in 23 matches, in what was his third season with Dynamo Kyiv’s first team, the club where he was developed.
