Portuguese giants secure 50 per cent stake in midfielder

Porto have confirmed the signing of Olympiakos midfielder Fernando Belluschi in a 4.8million euros deal. The Argentine has signed a four-year deal with the Portuguese champions but the fee paid to Olympiakos will only secure 50 per cent of the player with the other half owned by his agent Pini Zahavi. The 25-year-old spent just 18 months with the Greek giants having made the move to Europe from River Plate, but leaves having completed less than half of his initial four-and-a-half-year deal. Belluschi performed admirably during his time at the club and managed to score eight goals from 34 league games but has opted for a switch to Porto. The former Newell's Old Boys youngster has had a 30million euro minimum fee release clause inserted in his new Porto contract.
