According to Portuguese sports newspaper Record, LA Galaxy are in advanced talks to sign Portuguese midfielder João Pedro. The deal is rumored to be around €1 million, with the Vitória de Guimarães player set to be announced on Thursday.
The 23-year-old midfielder has been a fan favorite and a key piece in coach Pedro Martins' starting XI, previously igniting rumors to a possible move to Portuguese giants FC Porto.
João Pedro was in the squad and ready to start in the Taça de Portugal quarterfinals on Wednesday but was a late scratch by coach Pedro Martins.
