Jackson Martinez will be joining Atletico Madrid after the La Liga club agreed to a 35 million euro deal with Porto, according to his agent Luiz Henrique Pompeo.
The 28-year-old striker, who is currently on international duty with Colombia in the Copa America, was initially looked set to be heading to AC Milan before Atletico made their move.
"It was finalised today," Pompeo told AS. "We want to thank Milan for their interest right up the end, we feel very honoured by it, but you can't be in two places at once.
"Atleti are a very big club that has done important things in the league and in Europe. Jackson is going there to also achieve great things and to bring the best out of himself. That's his dream and he's very excited. He's really happy."
Martinez has spent the last three years highly successful years with Porto, with the 2014/15 season his most prolific as he scored 32 goals in all competitions.
