Pablo Rosario arrives in Portugal to bolster FC Porto | OneFootball

Pablo Rosario is already in Portugal to sign and reinforce FC Porto for four seasons. The agreement with Nice, reported by O JOGO in Tuesday's edition, is closed, with the dragons paying 3.75 million euros for the 28-year-old defensive midfielder, born in Amsterdam and valued at 8 M€ by the Transfermarkt portal.

Pointed out as an alternative to Alan Varela, the player traveled to Porto this Friday to carry out the usual medical exams and formalize the contract, having landed shortly after 7:00 pm.

Pablo was directed by Francesco Farioli at Nice (2023/24) and was already among the goals of the Italian coach. The negotiations were prolonged, partly due to the intervention of Al Shabab, from Saudi Arabia. This may have been the reason why the midfielder, international for the Netherlands and the Dominican Republic (he holds dual nationality), did not participate in the match against Benfica in the Champions League pre-qualifying round. "He's about to leave and doesn't want to play. I already knew that in the first game he wasn't very willing to take risks," admitted coach Franck Haise at the time.
