Borja Sainz transfers from Norwich City to FC Porto for £14.25 million, signing a five-year contract. Sainz was Norwich's top scorer last season with 18 goals in the Championship despite a suspension. He originally joined Norwich from Giresunspor in 2023. Sporting director Ben Knapper praised Sainz's impact at the club, emphasizing memorable moments and goals. Norwich anticipates Sainz's departure and has signed Mathias Kvistgaarden. Sainz's first season included a debut goal against Fulham and notable performances, including two hat-tricks early in the next season before his scoring slowed down.
During his time with us, his performances and impact have been brilliant. He gave us all many memorable moments, scored some spectacular goals and was often the deciding factor in many of our games.
This is a fantastic move for all parties, with Borja now progressing onto the next stage of his career with a top European club in FC Porto.
The Canaries were bracing themselves for Sainz's departure and have brought in Denmark international Mathias Kvistgaarden who can operate as a striker and winger.
In his first season at Norwich, Sainz scored on his debut in an EFL Cup tie against Fulham and went on to add another seven goals in all competitions.
