Alan Varela’s standout performances for Porto, particularly in their recent Champions League victory over Arsenal, have caught the attention of several top teams.
Reports have suggested that clubs like Manchester City are actively scouting Varela, but as of now, it appears to be routine scouting activity rather than any advanced negotiations.
Numerous clubs have dispatched scouts to monitor the 22-year-old midfielder, who has been in excellent form for Porto in recent months. Additionally, it’s worth noting that Varela’s contract includes a hefty €70 million release clause, and negotiating with Portuguese clubs can be notoriously challenging.
Should any potential suitors emerge in the summer, securing Varela’s services could prove to be a difficult deal given the contractual terms and the competitive landscape of the transfer market.
