Porto willing to re-sign Mangala

Porto are considering the prospect of re-signing defender Eliaquim Mangala from Manchester City this summer. The France international has had a tough time in the playing field since his move to the Etihad in 2014.

Mangala is a likely candidate to leave the Citizens with new boss Pep Guardiola looking to freshen up his backline ahead of next season.

Portuguese outlet O Jogo suggests that the Dragons are willing to welcome back the Frenchman, who was a mainstay during their successful spell in the Primeira Liga.

The 25-year-old was severely criticised last season as he failed to keep up his performance levels in the absence of club-captain Vincent Kompany.

The centre-back has appeared in 57 games for the Citizens till date.
