Porto have set their sights on Riqui Puig. The difficult situation of the young Barcelona midfielder, to whom Koeman has recommended leaving on loan this season to have minutes and thus gain experience, makes the Portuguese team study the possibility of requesting the loan of Riqui Puig for this season.
According to the Portuguese newspaper 'Record', from the Porto offices they consider that it will be a complicated operation, since Riqui Puig communicated to Barcelona his intention to stay in the Barça team during this season. Anyway, the Portuguese team is looking at how to approach the negotiations in order to incorporate the talented midfielder this season. Puig is liked by Sergio Conceiçao, who has given the go-ahead to the operation.
In the coming days, Oporto will make the formal proposal to Barcelona, as reported by 'Record'. There is still a week left until the market closes (October 5) and anything can happen. Riqui Puig's intention is to wait for opportunities with the first team from the subsidiary, but everything can change these days.
