Mangala joins Valencia on a Permanent deal

[BlueCityfan]

To avoid losing him on a free and get a fee out of him - looks like we're set to do a deal with Porto

Same reports mention him cancelling his contact. I doubt Porto will pay us much, if anything...

 

[FantasyIreland]

I'm sure we have come to some sort of agreement.

It's gonna be chump change I bet something along the lines of €5m, but better than nothing I suppose.

Will be nothing but some good will with Porto I imagine.

Does anyone know if there are any players at Porto we might be after?

Not at the minute. Probably youth prospects although we have a partnership with Sporting now.

At least they got the original transfer fee correct! Taken from the BBC gossip page.

Manchester City's France defender Eliaquim Mangala, 28, is set to return to Porto - five years after moving to Etihad Stadium from the the Portuguese club for £32m. (O Jogo - in Portuguese)

Probably the option of the first dibs on the next Mangala

Probably the option of the first dibs on the next Mangala

Or the next Fernando if we’re lucky.
