Lucho Gonzalez is poised to sign for Olympique de Marseille in a transfer that will see Porto receive a fee of €18 million, which could rise to €24 million.

After four years of football at the Estadio do Dragao, the player has admitted that he will miss playing for the club.

"I have at the same time a feeling of joy and sadness, for leaving a city and a club where I was treated in the best possible way," Lucho told Porto's official website.

"It is evident that both me and Porto will benefit from this transfer and that is what is important.

"I will be eternally grateful to the club, their professionals and supporters, who have always treated me in a special way. That is what I take with me.

"These were four unforgettable years for me. I am sure I will miss being here a lot. Porto's people are in my heart."
