Hearing a lot about Samu Omorodion at Porto. Dude’s got 11 goals in 10 games and now Chelsea, Man United, and PSG are after him. With a €100M release clause, do you think he’s worth it or nah? He seems happy at Porto, but we all know money talks. Thoughts?
€100M is steep for someone so young, but his scoring record is nuts. Maybe he’s worth the risk?

Yeah, but signing young players always feels like a gamble. Remember João Félix at Atletico?

True, but clubs like PSG have the cash to spend. It’s all about potential, I guess.
Chelsea going for him again? Seems like they’re always buying young strikers and not giving them enough time to develop.

Yeah, it’s like a revolving door for strikers there. Wonder if Maresca will actually use him.

IDK… they did stick with some young players like Colwill. Maybe this time will be different?
Man United could really use a striker like Samu. Their offense has been struggling big time.

No kidding. Amorim wants a goalscorer to finish chances. Could be a good move for United.

Would he even want to join United in their current state, though? Porto is doing fine.
PSG is probably the best bet if he’s looking for trophies, but does Ligue 1 really prepare him for top-level competition?

Good point. He might develop better in the Premier League. Way more competitive.

Yeah, but PSG has the money and a solid team around him. Could go either way.
What do you guys think about him staying at Porto? If he’s happy there, why move?

Sometimes it’s better to stay and develop, but €100M offers are hard to turn down.

True. If Porto keeps him for another season, his value could rise even more. Or he could flop… who knows?
