In Portugal confirm the signing of H¨¦ctor Herrera with Atl¨¦tico
The newspaper A Bola reaffirmed the departure of H¨¦ctor Herrera to Atl¨¦tico Madrid; the announcement will be made at the end of the season.
After H¨¦ctor Herrera didn?t renew his contract with Porto, he's linked to a number of clubs, and since a week ago the option that the Mexican midfielder would leave Porto for a Spanish team has been handled.
In particular, the teams that are coming strong for Herrera are Real Betis, where Andr¨¦s Guardo and Diego Lainez play, and Atl¨¦tico Madrid, which is the strongest option, and according to the Portuguese newspaper A Bola the Mexican will opt for 'Los Colchoneros.'
H¨¦ctor Herrera's contract with the 'Blue Dragons' concludes at the end of the season, becoming a free agent and available to join Atl¨¦tico Madrid free of charge.
It is also estimated that after the end of the tournament, the arrival of the Mexican international to the Spanish League will be official, in a contract set to be for five seasons.
Atleti's Transfers
Diego Simeone will not only get H¨¦ctor Herrera for the coming season from Porto; the Brazilian Alex Telles will also join the team, though the Blue Dragons asked for 40 million euros both sides would have reached an agreement for Atl¨¦tico to pay a tad less than forty for the 26-year-old player.
