My team is FC Porto and they usually are the transfer market champs in Europe.

I'm always impressed how a smaller league like the Portugese one is able to find those talents abroad and sell them for 30 million plus to top countries.. Countries like the netherlands, belgium, greece should also be able to do that but they never do.. Is it true that Porto has over 250 scouts?

I don't know the numbers but they have eyes from Japan to Colombia.

If Porto had money like top PL teams we could've had a team like this:

Danilo -- Pepe(sold to R.Madrid)-- Mangala(sold to MCity)-- Alex Sandro

----------------Fernando(sold to MCity)--Moutinho(sold to Monaco)---

---------------------------------James Rodriguez(sold to Monaco)-------------

Hulk(sold to Zenit)---------Falcao(sold to A.Madrid, now in Monaco)---Tello(2 year loan from Barca)
