Porto officially announced the return of Sekou Fofana. The 31-year-old senior player will re-sign for the Portuguese club on loan from Rennes for the 2026/27 season. Ugoda does not transfer options to the purchase contract.

Fofana already played for Porto in the other half of last season, helping the team win the championship title from Portugal.

During this period, the Ivorian played 18 matches in all tournaments, scoring three goals and providing one assist.

The footballer's return was the result of many long negotiations between clubs. Fofana has a contract with Rennes until the summer of 2029, but does not enter into the plans of the head coach of the French team.

In this way, Porto once again removed from its order a proven midfielder, who was already familiar from the team and helped them win the trophy in the previous campaign..
