Academica's Eder on the radar of FC Porto – Primeira Liga News
Academica’s Eder is reportedly on the radar of FC Porto. The striker has been prolific for the Students and has caught the attention of the champions, who are looking to add him to their front-line.
The Portistas boast some of the best attacking players in the Portuguese Primeira Liga. Led up-front by the mercurial Hulk, Vitor Pereira’s men have shown what it takes to dissect defences and get on the score sheet with ease.
However in recent fixtures, their dependency on the Brazilian International has been highlighted. Kleber and Walter are the other forwards at the helm but both have not displayed their abilities on a consistent basis in order to be deemed as the first-choice partnership.
FC Porto are also currently struggling in their bid to retain their Liga Sagres crown as well as ensuring their progression to the latter stages of the UEFA Champions League.
The club are in a must-win situation in the prestigious European competition and will have to pick up three points against Shakhtar Donetsk if they are to have any chance of securing a berth in the knock-out rounds.
Lack of in-depth quality means that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vitor-c36281 Pereira is not able to field a very strong line-up in every tournament and for that reason, the tactician is reportedly keeping tabs on Academica’s Eder.
The 23-year-old has been one of the positives of the season for the Stout one, who lie in 10th place in the standings. Having netted 4 goals this term, the former Ademia man has proven that he can be of some value at the highest stage and could be brought off the bench in search of a late surge.
With http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186’s priority and luckily for them they have the ideal target in mind.
While prising him out of the hands of Academica may not that be easy despite their considerable financial muscle, given that the Dragons are playing in Europe may prove to be too tempting for Eder and he may choose to sign for the club in the upcoming transfer window.
