"The club could not agree and I will continue in the colours of Porto," Pereira revealed.



"They said they did not want to sell me and weaken the team, and as a player I have to respect that decision.



"Chelsea grew weary and withdrew their offer. My agent told me the two clubs just could not reach an agreement.



"I just have to focus on Porto and try and produce a performance, it will not be easy but that is my challenge."
