As the summer transfer window progresses, uncertainty surrounds the future of Mexican striker Santiago Giménez, with reports suggesting he is not in AC Milan's plans for the upcoming season. A potential move to Portuguese club Porto has emerged as a strong possibility, a prospect that has drawn commentary from Porto legend Héctor Herrera.

Herrera, who holds a special affection for Porto, shared his thoughts on Giménez's potential transfer. "I saw the news recently, some Portuguese friends wrote to me, I hope he can go and I'll rent him my house," Herrera joked in an interview with Univisión, highlighting his enthusiasm for the idea.

The former Porto captain believes the move would be highly beneficial for the young Mexican forward. "It's a team where it's very good to stand out and make history. Porto meant everything to me, I have a special affection and love for it. If he asked me for advice, I would say it's the best option he could have; he will feel loved, and that is important for us as players," Herrera explained.

Herrera emphasized that Porto offers an environment where players can thrive and feel appreciated, which he considers crucial for Giménez's development and return to peak form, similar to his successful period at Feyenoord. As of now, there have been no concrete updates regarding Giménez's potential transfer to the Portuguese club.
