Sporting are preparing for the start of the 2026/27 season with added attention on Chris Grombahi’s return to Alvalade, after his spell at Club Brugge, in a context where the club’s structure wants to ensure the young forward is integrated in a balanced way into his development path.
According to information gathered by Leonino, the Alvalade club wants to clearly define from the outset the framework surrounding the 17-year-old player, expecting a serious response focused on daily work, with no room for a lack of commitment or distractions.
As our newspaper has learned, the Lions do not intend to make exceptions or rush stages in the winger’s development, understanding that the forward’s progress depends exclusively on the performance and attitude shown in training and in the B team’s competitions.
Sporting stress internally that any academy player must respect the hierarchy and the current competitive model, and that progression to higher levels will always be a direct consequence of performances on the pitch.
Thus, Grombahi’s future at Alvalade will depend on how he responds to this new phase, with the club demanding total commitment and a consistently professional attitude so that he can continue to be part of Sporting’s project in the medium and long term.
