Porto`s defender, João Mario, is scheduled for a medical examination with Juventus tomorrow, marking the imminent completion of a cash-plus-player exchange deal that includes Alberto Costa.

Reliable sources with direct insight into the transaction have corroborated the financial details of the agreement, which were initially disclosed by A Bola.
The deal will see João Mario transfer from Porto to Turin, while Alberto Costa will move to the Portuguese club. This marks a return to his homeland for Costa, who has spent only seven months with Juventus.
João Mario`s valuation stands at €10 million. Conversely, Porto will disburse €15 million, with an additional €1 million in performance-related add-ons, for Alberto Costa.

Costa had previously joined Juventus from Vitoria Guimaraes in the January transfer window, in a deal worth €13.8 million.
Earlier this summer, Sporting CP, Porto`s domestic rivals, had engaged in discussions with Juventus regarding Alberto Costa, but were unable to reach a conclusive agreement with the Bianconeri.
