Al-Ittihad has initiated official contacts with FC Porto to try to sign the young forward Rodrigo Mora. The operation is already underway and is generating great anticipation in the world of football, as confirmed by Fabrizio Romano.

The Saudis have put forward a proposal to the Portuguese club, aware that Mora's release clause is set at €70 million. Al-Ittihad is willing to surpass that amount by seeking to improve the payment conditions and ensure that the negotiation progresses smoothly. 

Meanwhile, Rodrigo's agent, Jorge Mendes, is at the center of the discussions. He is negotiating directly with both parties to find a solution that satisfies both the player and the club. 

From FC Porto, they maintain a firm stance: they will only accept the full clause of €70 million. They are not willing to settle for less, although they are aware of the need to adjust their budget, which could impact the outcome. 

Rodrigo Mora, the talent drawing interest in Saudi Arabia.

Rodrigo Mora, at only 18 years old, has already shown outstanding abilities. This season he has scored 10 goals in the Portuguese league, being the top scorer under-20 in the major European leagues in that category. Additionally, he was named Player of the Month and Midfielder of the Month in April. His quality has led the club to support him with a contract extension until June 2030. 

His impact was not limited to Portugal: in June, he made his debut in the Club World Cup and became the youngest European scorer in the history of the tournament, scoring at just 18 years old. 

However, it hasn't been a smooth road entirely. The arrival of the new coach, Francesco Farioli, has complicated his situation in the first team. Rodrigo Mora has lost prominence and has been left out of the starting eleven in the initial friendly matches and the start of the league, raising questions about his immediate future at the club. 

If the transfer goes through, it would be one of the major market coups. Al-Ittihad is determined to sign a player with enormous potential. Nevertheless, there are still details to be ironed out: payment, conditions, and the final will of both the player and the club.

Should the deal come to fruition, Rodrigo Mora would join a Saudi league in full growth, where big-name stars already shine. However, he would also depart the European scene at a key moment in his development. His future remains open, and the coming days will be critical to see if the negotiation flows toward an agreement or if Porto manages to retain their gem for a bit longer.
