REVEALED: Man Utd target Farioli's Porto deal carries buyout clause

Porto coach Francesco Farioli is being linked with Manchester United.

The Telegraph says Farioli and Roberto de Zerbi, of Olympique Marseille, are both under consideration at United after the dismissal of Ruben Amorim last week.

Farioli's contract at Porto carries a €15m buyout clause and runs to 2027.

Asked if there's been talks about an extension, he said: "No. Now the priority is to do well for the team. It's the first time in my short career that I feel I can build on something.

"Last year I felt it was impossible to manage the demands, but here we have a young team, a captain (Diogo Costa) who recently renewed his contract and is a top-notch leader and professional, and players from FC Porto B who can help... we're on the right path."
