Altimira cashes in on his own transfer, set for millions at Sporting | OneFootball

Sergi Altimira will be officially announced as a Sporting signing and, besides representing a major investment by the Lions, the transfer will also financially benefit the player himself. The midfielder will leave Real Betis on a permanent deal.

Sporting will pay around €18 million fixed to secure the signing of the Spanish footballer, in a deal that could still increase depending on the achievement of previously defined objectives agreed between the two clubs.

However, not even the full initial amount will remain in the Spanish club’s coffers. Sergi Altimira owns 15% of the economic rights to his transfer, which will allow him to pocket around €2.7 million once the move to Alvalade is completed.

If the variable clauses in the deal are triggered, the amount received by Rui Borges’ future player could increase even further, since the percentage he is entitled to also applies to that possible additional amount.

At 24 years old, Sergi Altimira arrives at Sporting after a season in which he took part in 40 official matches, scoring two goals and providing three assists. The player is seen as one of the main options to strengthen Sporting’s midfield for the new season.
