Paris FC is currently in negotiations with FC Porto for the transfer of Otavio, a 23-year-old Brazilian defender. The player is under contract with FC Porto until 2028. The discussions are reported to be well advanced, and the deal could be finalized soon according to a source close to the situation.

Paris FC is in discussions with Otávio, a former Flamengo and Famalicão player, who joined FC Porto for 12.3 million euros in winter 2024. Despite a release clause of 50 million euros, Paris FC aims to secure his transfer for a significantly lower fee due to his current lack of playtime at Porto. Otávio's contract with Porto runs until June 2028, but his limited playtime has led to Paris FC's interest in strengthening their defense with him.

Porto is planning to sell Otávio as part of a strategy to swap players who do not have much space in the team and to generate financial resources.

Otávio's future at FC Porto is uncertain due to off-field issues, including involvement in a controversial night out. The club is not willing to sell him for less than 10 million euros, the amount paid to Famalicão for 80% of his rights.
