OFFICIAL: Atletico sign Porto defender Felipe Monteiro for €20 million

Porto confirm that Felipe Monteiro will join Atletico for €20 million.

The 30-year-old centre-back joined Porto from Corinthians in 2016 and swiftly established himself as a key player, featuring 93 times in the Primeira Liga in his three years.

He has subsequently earned international recognition with Brazil and has become one of the mainstays in the defence of Porto. Atletico regard him as Godin's replacement, with the Uruguayan's exit already confirmed.

His defensive partner Eder Militao has already agreed a €50m summer switch to Real Madrid while teammates Alex Telles and Hector Herrera have also previously been linked to Atleti.
