Zeno Debast was the player chosen to be at the press conference previewing Sporting - Kairat. The footballer was asked about the situation of Jeremiah St. Juste, a footballer who stopped training with the A team of the lions, but chose not to fuel the topic.

Zeno Debast on St. Juste: "It's not something I should talk about”

“It's something between him and the Club, it's not something I should talk about”, said the 21-year-old Belgian international, speaking to Sport TV, after the controversy during the transfer market, which ended with the Dutch central defender in the B team of the green and whites.

Furthermore, Zeno Debast also addressed the moment he is going through at the Alvalade Club: "I try to keep my feet on the ground and work hard on the aspects that I still need to improve. There are always things to improve, I'm young and it's normal", he said.

Remember that Jeremiah St. Juste arrived at Sporting in 2022, from Mainz, for about 10 million euros. Despite having been able to demonstrate why Sporting spent this amount, the central defender never managed to establish himself as a starter, largely due to injuries, which always plagued him. The arrival of Rui Borges, and the switch to a system with two central defenders, instead of three, ended up taking even more space from the player.
