Man City 'had scouts in attendance' at Porto vs Famalicao and more transfer rumours

Manchester City reportedly had scouts watching Porto's Primeira Liga clash against Famalicao on Saturday evening, with the Blues said to be on a 'spying mission'.

According to A Bola, the reigning Premier League champions were in attendance at the Estadio do Dragao, although it remains unclear if City were in Portugal to watch a specific player. The report was later confirmed by O Jogo, who reported that Blues staff were present inside the stadium.

Porto cruised to a 4-1 victory in the match on Saturday, with Galeno (2), Otavio and Mehdi Taremi all on target. Brazilian winger Galeno was impressive throughout the clash and also recorded an assist, and right-back Joao Mario was bound to have impressed the scouts with a strong showing.
