Porto Set to Make New Bid for Jimenez

Porto is still holding on to the idea of signing Mexican striker Santiago Gimenez, currently at Milan, during the ongoing summer transfer window.

According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, the Portuguese club is ready to make a new offer to Milan, after the Italian side rejected the first proposal for not meeting their financial demands.

Porto's initial offer was based on a loan deal with an option to buy, but Milan was not convinced by the value of the offer or the structure of the deal. The club is holding out for better financial terms to part ways with the Mexican striker.

Meanwhile, Porto has obtained Jimenez's personal approval to join their ranks, giving the Portuguese club an additional boost in negotiations and now requiring them to convince AC Milan with the new offer.

The value of Porto's new bid is expected to indicate their seriousness in finalizing the deal, and whether it will be sufficient to meet Milan's demands, paving the way for Jimenez to embark on a new adventure in the Portuguese league.
