Porto is actively looking to strengthen its attacking line, prioritizing this as a key market objective despite the recent signing of André Silva, which has partially addressed the void at the striker position. Among the players being monitored closely by the club's management is Marcos Leonardo, the Brazilian forward currently playing for Al Hilal. According to reports from Record, Porto has yet to make an official offer to the Saudi club for the former Benfica talent. However, preliminary contacts with the player’s agents have taken place to gather information regarding his contract situation and future in Saudi Arabia. This is seen as a standard market inquiry to assess potential maneuverability for a complex operation. Marcos Leonardo’s position at Al Hilal is not entirely defined, even though he has recorded impressive numbers: 48 goals and 4 assists in 82 appearances over the past two seasons, confirming his significant offensive impact. Porto is therefore closely monitoring the situation with the intention of providing coach Francesco Farioli with a new top-quality reinforcement.
