Samu
21-Year-Old
FC Porto
Heading to Portugal
Samu has completed a transfer to FC Porto from Atletico Madrid, according to his former club.
ANALYSIS
Samu has been heavily linked to a transfer out of Madrid, with an initial transfer to Chelsea falling through before agreeing on terms to join Portuguese side FC Porto. He served much of last season on loan with Alaves, starting in 21 of his 34 appearances while notching eight goals on 64 shots and one assist on 16 chances created. He is likely to see much more time with his new club, probably seeing anywhere from a rotational to a starting role once integrated with the squad.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Magpies looking at him
Newcastle are considering a summer move for Samu, according to Eduardo Burgos of Diario AS.
ANALYSIS
Newcastle are looking at options to bolster their attacking line, which will be a top priority if Alexander Isak ends up departing the club. Landing Samu, who's under contract at Porto, could be realistic after the Portuguese club signed Luuk de Jong to bolster their forward line. For what it's worth, though, the Primeira Liga side are keen to keep the 21-year-old for one more season. It would take an offer worth €80 million for them to do a deal.
