He signed a five-year contract with the club, while Vélez retained 50% of his registration rights. Porto had the option to acquire the remaining 50% for an additional €4 million before September 2011, which they exercised.

Notably, he played a crucial role in helping his team secure the League Cup for the third consecutive season in March 2020, which turned out to be his last trophy with the club. In September 2020, Otamendi made a move to Benfica, the rival club of his former team Porto. He signed a three-year agreement with Benfica for a fee of €15 million, while Benfica defender Rúben Dias moved to Manchester City for a higher fee as part of the deal.
