Los Angeles FC agrees Andre Horta deal

Portuguese daily newspaper A Bola has learned that Los Angeles FC have found an agreement with Benfica for the transfer of midfielder Andre Horta.

The Major League Soccer newcomers have long ago expressed their interest in the 21-year-old footballer and are now finally set to wrap up the deal.

According to A Bola, a €5.6 million transfer fee has been agreed, allowing the player to sign a four-year contract worth €810,000 per campaign.

Andre Horta will join his new employers in the summer after his loan deal with Sporting Braga comes to an end.

The talented footballer has only managed 10 league appearances for Benfica since joining in a €400,000 deal from Vitorial Setubal, but he managed to impress during the loan stint with Os Minhotos.
