Tomás Pérez could leave FC Porto as he is not in the plans of coach Francesco Farioli, and the still-open Brazilian market is a potential destination. Atlético Mineiro, a club from Brazil's top division, is monitoring the 20-year-old Argentine defensive midfielder and has made an inquiry. Atlético Mineiro has not yet made a concrete move to FC Porto's management, but an attempt to sign the player is not ruled out.
