A Bola reports on FC Porto's acquisition of João Moreira from São Paulo. FC Porto signed João Moreira from São Paulo on loan with no associated costs. The agreement includes an option for FC Porto to purchase 50% of the player's economic rights for a fixed value of 2 million euros.

Moreira is being loaned to Porto with an option to buy. The decision was made to avoid hindering his growth due to limited playing time under coach Luís Zubeldía. São Paulo's director, Carlos Belmonte, explained that with players like Igor Vinicius, Cédric, and Maik in the squad, Moreira's development would be restricted at São Paulo.

Moreira is anticipated to journey to Portugal this week for medical examinations and to complete his transfer from São Paulo. The arrangement between the clubs features a loan to Porto lasting until December 2025, along with a purchase clause in the contract. São Paulo is optimistic that Moreira will appreciate in value in Europe and can be sold at the conclusion of the contract. The transfer has been a potential outcome since late last year when São Paulo contemplated including Moreira as part of a strategy to ease Wendell's release, but no deal was finalized at that time.

São Paulo offered right-back Moreira to FC Porto on loan, with an option to buy, as part of the deal for Wendell's transfer. Moreira holds a Portuguese passport and has represented Portugal's youth national teams. FC Porto had previously shown interest in Moreira during the summer transfer window.
