Atletico meet Porto release clause for Martinez

 

Atletico Madrid have agreed to sign Porto striker Jackson Martinez for £24.8m.

 

The Spanish club, looking to fill the void left by Mario Mandzukic’s exit, have agreed to meet the Colombian forward’s release clause.

 

The 28-year-old finished top goalscorer in each of his three seasons in Portugal’s top-flight, scoring 67 goals in 90 games and Martinez is relishing the move: "I'm excited about this move."
