All the details of Rui Borges' expected new deal with Sporting | OneFootball

The renewal of Rui Borges has already entered a concrete phase at Sporting and is beginning to take shape behind the scenes. There was a first meeting between the parties on Thursday in the early evening, which served as the kick-off for a process that is seen as relatively simple to conclude — albeit without any rush.

For now, the idea is to negotiate calmly, but with well-defined foundations. With Frederico Varandas already confirmed for the new term (2026-2030), the intention of the SAD is clear: to extend the coach’s contract by two more years, prolonging the current deal, which ends in June 2027.

In addition to the duration, the salary will also be reviewed. At the moment, Rui Borges earns around 1 million euros gross per year, a figure that should increase in the new agreement, reflecting the growth and results achieved since he took over the team.

As for the release clause, no changes are planned. The amount should remain at 20 million euros, just as it was set when he arrived at Sporting. Even so, all of this is being outlined according to the intentions of his representatives as well.

With a clear desire from both sides to continue and the main points already aligned, the process should move forward without major obstacles. Only the details and timing for officialization remain to be settled, but this is expected to be concluded before the end of the season.
