July 4, 2026 · Global
Porto have shown interest in Ukraine international striker Matviy Ponomarenko, but Dinamo Kyiv are demanding a fee of €25 million for his transfer.
Portuguese club Porto has shown interest in recruiting 20-year-old striker from the Ukrainian national team, Matviy Ponomarenko. According to a report from A Bola, the club is considering Ponomarenko, who currently plays for Dinamo Kyiv, as an option to strengthen their attack line, along with Al-Hilal striker Marcos Leonardo.
Further information reveals that to date, Porto have not submitted an official offer for either Ponomarenko or Leonardo. However, there are challenges in negotiations for Ponomarenko due to Dinamo Kyiv's high asking price. Previously, the Ukrainian club had rejected an offer worth €20 million from Galatasaray. Now, Dinamo Kyiv wants around €25-30 million for Ponomarenko's transfer. Last season, Ponomarenko recorded the achievement as the top scorer in the Ukrainian Premier League, by scoring 13 goals in 15 matches.
