The Portuguese champions could face Tottenham, Manchester United or Manchester City in the last eight of the competition.Marega, who has been linked with Chelsea in the past, hinted at a move to the Premier League last summer.He told SFR Sport: I, we [Porto] had a beautiful year andwith this title of champion that is a huge pride. I’m coming out of a year with 23 goals in all competitions.For me, I think this is perhaps the best time to try my luck elsewhere, to live a new experience, to know a new championship, the Premier League, for example. “And it hurts me to say that because I am very attached to this club, to its supporters who give me a lot.“I like this championship for a long time. At the same time, who does not like the Premier League. It’s a very big league, with very big players.“It’s flattering when clubs are interested in you, but I have always dreamed of playing there. I want to be happy, with my family, in a championship that I love.”
