Alex Telles to Porto: Latest Transfer Details, Reaction and More

Porto have agreed a deal to sign left-back Alex Telles from Galatasaray, it was revealed on Wednesday.

The Brazilian spent the 2015-16 campaign on loan at Inter Milan, and Porto's Twitter feed confirmed that he would be joining up with his new team-mates in time for the beginning of the Portuguese season:

Telles has coped well with his transition to European football and was installed as Robert Mancini's starting left-back for the majority of the 2015-16 season.

That came after the 23-year-old was elected to the 2013 Brasileirao Team of the Season while at former club Gremio. Here is a look at what he can offer:

Telles also brings the added advantage of having already featured in the UEFA Champions League, making five appearances for Gala in European competition in 2014-15.

Manager Nuno Espirito Santo will be hoping his latest recruit makes a seamless switch to the Portuguese top flight after completing his third transfer in three years.

With time running out before the 2016-17 season gets under way, Telles will need to be quick to get to grips with his new surroundings and the increase in expectations this transfer will trigger.
