Cies identified Mora as the next Portuguese young star

July 22 – The second edition of the CIES soccer observatory prospects, was developed in collaboration with Copyhighlighted one of the smartest young stars Appear From Portugal: Rodrigo lives.

Born in 2007 – the same year as the sensation of Spain Lamine Yamal – FC Porto attacking midfielder has made the beginning of electricity for his professional career. With ten goals in Primeira Liga and the first senior national national team’s calling under his belt, Mora quickly positioned himself as a prominent figure in the next generation of European talent.

While he did not leave the main scars in the Club World Cup recently, where Porto was eliminated in the group stage, he made a memorable position in a 4-4 draw with an expert, offering a glimpse of his expertise for big times.

He also missed the UEFA European U21 Championship last month, most of his involvement at the Club World Cup but also with feelings that still exist that even at the age of 18, he had exceeded that level.

Located briefly with Arsenal, speculation about high profile transfer has been spinning, but for now, the hope is that Mora will be given at least the season in Portugal to develop further before each step is realized.

That does not stop its value from soaring. According to the Cies Football Observatory statistical model, Mora is currently valued at € 53.4 million, which can immediately exceed the purchase clause of € 70 million, agreed during the recent contract extension that binds it to Porto until 2030.

But there may be doubts to jump on the first offer. Mora and the camp will be very aware of João Félix’s track, which € 126 million moved to Atlético Madrid in 2019 since leaving him in Limbo’s career, still looking for the right right.

From a technical point of view, data shows Mora as a specialist and high volume shooter, making it a modern attacking midfielder with direct talent and threat. This report draws a comparison with players like Ademola Lookman, currently in demand after a prominent season, and Philippe Coutinho, who was once the most expensive midfielder in the history of football.

At the age of 18, the potential for Mora was clearly and and with Porto’s well-documented financial pressure, the club could eventually choose to cash their valuable assets faster than later. However, for now, both players and clubs seem satisfied waiting – even if all Europe has knocked.
