Tottenham Hotspur loans fullback Souza to FC Porto for the season

Tottenham Hotspur confirmed the departure of Brazilian fullback Souza on a loan move to Primeira Liga side FC Porto for the remainder of the 2026/27 season. The arrangement is categorized as a dry loan, meaning no purchase option is included in the deal. FC Porto moved for the defender to address immediate depth concerns at the left-back position. The club currently faces an injury to Zaidu Sanusi, and a rumored transfer involving Francisco Moura to Hamburger SV failed to materialize. While the loan provides an opportunity for Souza to gain experience following his arrival from Brazil, his playing time remains uncertain. His role depends on the recovery timeline of Sanusi and the status of the current Porto roster as the season continues.
