Super Eagles Star Nears Contract Extension With FC Porto

Sampson Adedeji

Super Eagles defender Zaidu Sanusi is on the verge of signing a new two-year contract extension with FC Porto, which includes a significant salary increase, even as a top Spanish club continues to show interest, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Under the new deal, Sanusi’s annual earnings will rise from €3.5 million to €4.2 million.

Since joining Porto from Santa Clara in 2020 for a fee of €4 million, the Nigerian international has grown into a vital part of the squad despite battling several injury setbacks.

Over five seasons, he has made 101 appearances for the Portuguese giants.

With his current contract set to expire in 2027, the 28-year-old left-back has been in advanced discussions with the club’s management in recent days to finalize the extension.

So far this season, Sanusi has featured in nine competitive matches, contributing one goal and one assist for the Dragons.
