Luis Guilherme could move to Portugal in January, and sources confirm Porto is one of the clubs in an advanced position to sign him. Porto has a strong interest in Guilherme, having monitored the player closely and previously made approaches. The club is monitoring developments and is prepared to act if Sporting’s talks do not succeed. Guilherme is interested in the move and is receptive to returning to a more familiar footballing culture in Portugal, where he believes he can regain his form and secure regular playing time.

West Ham's 19-year-old attacker Luís Guilherme was recently a target for Portuguese club Porto. Another Portuguese side, Sporting, has now advanced in negotiations for his permanent signing. The discussions, which initially centered on a loan with an obligation to buy, are now nearing an agreement for a direct purchase. The clubs are finalizing the transfer values, which are set to include a fixed fee plus performance-related add-ons. Both parties are confident of a positive outcome. The player is said to view a potential January move to Sporting favorably.
