João Gião may succeed João Pereira, leaving Sporting caught short | OneFootball

Due to the poor results of Casa Pia, the geese have dismissed João Pereira and want to 'recruit' at Alvalade. João Gião, Sporting's coach, is viewed very favorably by the management of the Lisbon club, but there have not yet been any contacts with the lions.

In Sporting's secondary team, João Gião is doing a fantastic job. The lions are leaders of the second league, with 21 points in nine matches (seven wins and two losses). In the UEFA Youth League, the Alvalade Club has seven points (two wins and one draw) and is in 10th place.

As revealed in an Exclusive Leonino, the Sporting structure, led by Frederico Varandas, is very satisfied with João Gião and intends to reward him with a contract renewal. It remains to be seen how the process will unfold with this potential move to Casa Pia.

Recently, after the debut of several B team players in the main team, João Gião expressed his happiness: “Our greatest victory since I arrived here was the one we had on Tuesday [Sporting – Tondela]. We work every day to see players we help develop reach the main team. Having five made the day extremely gratifying.”

“I appreciate the words of mister Rui Borges, but it is not just my work, obviously. Most of the players come from a long process at the Academy, and the B team is the culmination. The entire formative process is very important,” concluded João Gião, who is now on Casa Pia's radar.
