Reported Portsmouth target looks set for move to Portugal

Alleged Portsmouth target Fernando Belluschi is said to have held talks over a possible move to Porto this weekend. The Olympiakos midfielder was strongly linked with a move to Fratton Park this summer but it now seems Porto are close to capturing the Argentine for around €9million. The former River Plate ace signed for the Greek champions in January 2008 for €7million to claim a 50 per cent stake in the player with Belluschi's agent Pini Zahavi owning the other half. Belluschi is said to have flown to Portugal on Saturday to meet with Porto officials to discuss a transfer which would see the Portuguese champions own the player out right. The 25-year-old looks set to sign a four-year deal with Porto, while Olympiakos are also said to have lined up Lyon midfielder Kim Kallstrom as a replacement.
