Paris Saint-Germain in negotiations for FC Porto's Hulk
French giants, Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly in talks with Portuguese champions, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186, for their coveted asset Hulk. The Brazilian has been one of the star performers in Liga Sagres and the Parisians are keen to lure him to Ligue 1, after being
ruled out of a move for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Tevez.
Selecao International, Hulk, has undoubtedly been one of the positives of FC Porto’s below-par season. The Portistas, who cruised to a quadruple in marvellous fashion last term, seem to have lost their touch with the departure of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Radamel-Falcao-c30276 and Andre
Villas-Boas.
Currently lying second in the Primeira Liga standings and having crashed out of the prestigious UEFA Champions League as well as the League cup, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vitor-c36281 Pereira’s men have come under great pressure to deliver.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hulk-c16436, who has been a leading light at Estadio do Dragao, has tried his best to influence proceedings but upfront on his own, he has been unable to drag the Dragons to victories in all the matches.
The former Tokyo Verdy was offered a chance to part ways with FC Porto in the summer, however in a display of uncommon loyalty he chose to stay with the club.
Anzhi Makhachkala, the super-rich Russian club, allegedly made a big-money bid for the 25-year-old’s services, but even their €80 million deal was waived away by the Porto hierarchy, who deemed it far lower than their €100 million evaluation.
Paris Saint-Germain, however now boast that sort of financial power, as the Qatari Investment Authority have pumped their petro-dollars at the Parc des Princes and funded the transfers of European stars such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Javier-Pastore-c18082.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Leonardo-c22056, who happens to be the football director at the helm, has been credited with an interest in Hulk in the past by the player’s agent, who has also hinted that his client might be one of the club’s top targets in the upcoming winter window.
Speaking to reporters, Teodoro http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kawasaki-Frontale-c39683 man had been coveted by Leonardo during his time in Serie A and also added that the Porto star was a big admirer of the Les Rouge-et-Bleu.
"Leonardo has always wanted Hulk at his clubs. When he was at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 and AC Milan, he tried to sign him."
"Any player would love to play for PSG and for us Brazilians; they are a very special club. Hulk respects PSG and their history a lot,” the representative was quoted as saying.
With the Primeira Liga trophy looking likely to end up at Estadio da Luz, the Brazilian International might make a wise decision by handing in a transfer request this time when the window re-opens.
However, as the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Costa-c9458 are keen to retain the services of their most potent attacking weapon, it remains to be seen whether Hulk ends up at Paris Saint-Germain or not in January.
