The decision to loan out Pepê comes after extensive discussions that considered both the player’s development and the club’s financial situation.

The loan deal includes an option for Manchester to purchase Pepê at the end of the four years, leaving many anxious about the forward’s long-term future. As the transfer window draws to a close, FC Porto fans will be left hoping for a miracle to bring their hero back home one day, while Pepê embarks on a new chapter away from the club he loves.
