LISBON, Aug 23 — Midfielder Otavio has left Porto for Saudi club Al-Nassr in a deal worth €60 million (US$65.1 million, RM303 million), the Portuguese club said yesterday.

The Brazilian-born Otavio joined Porto in 2014 from Internacional and made his international debut for Portugal in 2021.

He will link up with Portugal teammate Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr.

"It’s difficult to leave the club after nine years here,” the 28-year-old told the Porto website. — AFP
