FC Porto has recently rejected a €63 million offer from Al Ittihad for their emerging 18-year-old striker Rodrigo Mora, demanding the full €70 million stipulated in his release clause. The transfer stalled due to a €7 million gap, with Mora considered one of the most promising talents sought by multiple European clubs. Al Ittihad is looking to adjust their foreign player roster, possibly making room for Mora following Houssem Aouar’s exit[1][5].

The latest transfer activity for Porto includes several player movements this summer. Notable arrivals are Borja Sainz from Norwich, Dominik Prpic from Hajduk Split, Alberto Costa from Juventus, and Gabriel Veiga from Al Ahli. Key departures feature Francisco Conceição to Juventus for approximately €30-32 million, João Mário also to Juventus, and Nico González’s winter move to Manchester City for €60 million[2][4][6][8].

In recent days, Iván Jaime, who previously played with Famalicão and spent a loan spell at Valencia CF, has joined CF Montréal from Porto on loan with a purchase option. Jaime made 44 appearances for Porto, scoring 5 goals and registering 2 assists since his move in 2023[7][8].

On the field, Porto hosted Casa Pia on August 23, pushing for a vital Liga Portugal Betclic victory in Matchday 3. The match showcased Porto’s attacking threats, with notable contributions from players such as Bednarek, Borja Sainz, Zaidu Sanusi, and Gabriel Veiga. Despite promising build-up and goal opportunities, one Porto effort was ruled offside[3].
