Argentina goalkeeper Marchesin sold by Club America to Porto

Another piece of America's Apertura championship team is headed for the exits.

Goalkeeper Agustin Marchesin, who also helped the team win the 2019 Clausura Copa MX, is moving to Porto, the club announced.

The move was widely expected after the goalkeeper left the training ground Tuesday and returned in tears, hugging his teammates. He's the latest player to move from America this summer, with promising defender Edson Alvarez sold to Ajax and veteran forward Oribe Peralta moved to Chivas earlier in the summer window.
