Strasbourg in advanced talks for FC Porto winger Gonçalo Borges | OneFootball

According to a report from L’Équipe, Racing Club de Strasbourg are in advanced discussions to sign FC Porto winger Gonçalo Borges (23). Talks are currently over a potential €6m move for Borges, who is currently under contract until 2027 with the Dragões.

After being close to signing for Les Alsatiens last summer, the 23-year-old decided to stay at the Portuguese club and has since played in 23 matches (albeit from a bench spot), scoring two goals and recording three assists. Strasbourg initiated talks to sign the player again six days ago, as they look to strengthen their wing options after Dilane Bakwa suffered an injury which is expected to rule him out for several weeks.The original agreement reached with Porto in the summer would have seen the winger move to the Alsace region for a fee valued around €8m. He enjoyed solid game time under Sergio Conceicao last season , playing in 28 games across all competitions and registering three assists. GFFN | George Boxall
