Porto have announced the signings of Atletico Madrid midfielders Oliver Torres and Diogo Jota on season-long loans.
Oliver rejoins Porto after spending the 2014-15 campaign with the Portuguese giants, where he scored seven goals in 40 appearances but failed to win any silverware under compatriot and new Spain boss Julen Lopetegui.
Porto have also swooped for Portuguese starlet Diogo after the new boy was not considered part of Diego Simeone’s plans for the season ahead.
However, neither arrangement includes the option of a permanent transfer as Atleti continue to value the pair’s potential highly.
Their moves come in the wake of right-back Javi Manquillo completing a similar switch to English club Sunderland.
