Tello-Barcelona

    Barcelona winger Cristian Tello has joined Portuguese side Porto on a two-year loan deal.

    The young Spanish winger found playing time hard to come by at the Camp Nou last season with the form of Neymar, Lionel Messi, Alexis Sanchez and Pedro Rodriguez stopping his progress.

    Linked with the likes of Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal and several Italian clubs, Tello has been linked with a move since the turn of the summer.

    However, Portuguese giants Porto have beaten any potential suitors to the signing of the 22-year-old.

    A two-year loan deal will see the winger attempt to prove himself away from La Liga and an included buy-out clause could see the Spaniard join the club in a permanent basis.

    Barcelona have the right to cancel the agreement at any time, should they feel Tello is performing to the standard they desire.

    Tello made 30 appearances for the Catalan outfit last term, scoring just five goals.
