Swansea City has confirmed the signing of luso-Canadian midfielder Stephen Eustáquio from FC Porto. According to various sources, the Welsh club paid an undisclosed fee to Porto, reported to be around £3.4 million, or over €5.6 million.

Eustáquio, who emerged as a key player at FC Porto, was officially presented as a new signing for Swansea, where he will play for two years with an option for an additional year.

The confirmation of the transfer was reported by zerozero, which noted that the player's connection to the English club had been anticipated earlier. Meanwhile, his goal contribution at Porto was highlighted as significant for the team's success.

Eustáquio's transfer marks an important change in the athlete's career as he now joins coach Vítor Matos at Swansea City. This move is seen as a strategic maneuver for the Welsh club in the league scene.
