João Afonso joins FC Porto after Santa Clara reject Sporting bid | OneFootball

João Afonso is leaving Santa Clara and heading to FC Porto. The information and details of the deal were first reported by the newspaper O Jogo, and Bola na Rede is able to confirm that the agreement has been finalized.

Contrary to what had previously been reported, the transfer will be completed for €1.5 million, plus €500,000 in easily achievable performance-related bonuses. These amounts relate to 80% of the player’s economic rights. If FC Porto wishes to acquire the remaining 20%, it will have to pay €2 million, raising the potential total value to €4 million.

The same source says that Santa Clara rejected Sporting’s offer, which did not go beyond a figure below the €1 million requested. At FC Porto, the goalkeeper will sign a contract valid for five seasons.

João Afonso made his debut for Santa Clara in the final two rounds of the Primeira Liga, having started in the last game of the season at the Dragão. The goalkeeper is 19 years old.
