Porto have contracted Nice to request the early termination of Ricardo Pereira’s two-year loan switch, reports Foot 365, via Get French Football.
Pereira, 22, has been hugely impressive at Nice and his performances have somewhat been overlooked following the dazzling form of teammate Hatem Ben Arfa.
The Portugal international joined Nice on a two-year loan deal from Porto last summer but the Portuguese giants have requested he returns earlier than anticipated, which Nice aren’t expected to react favourably too.
In fact, only Ben Arfa (7.58) has garnered a higher WhoScored.com rating in Ligue 1 for Nice this season than Pereira (7.44).
