Terem Moffi close to completing FC Porto switch after difficult spell in France.
Super Eagles striker Terem Moffi is on the verge of completing a loan move to Portuguese giants FC Porto, Completesports.com reports.
The deal includes an option to buy worth €8 million at the end of the season, with the transfer expected to be made official on Thursday once the Nigerian forward completes his medical examination.
The move brings an end to a turbulent two-month period for the 26-year-old striker, who has not featured for OGC Nice since November following a disturbing incident involving club supporters.

Moffi, alongside Ivory Coast international Jérémie Boga, was physically assaulted by Nice fans after the club’s 3-1 defeat to Lorient, an incident that sparked widespread condemnation. Since then, the Nigerian forward has been frozen out of matchday action.
The former Lorient striker originally joined Nice in January 2022, but his time at the club appears set to end as Porto prepare to offer him a fresh start in the Primeira Liga and European competition.
If completed, the move could provide Moffi with the platform to revive his club career and reassert his importance for the Super Eagles ahead of upcoming international commitments.
