Official: Diego Veiga agrees deal with Sporting | OneFootball

It’s official. Diego Veiga, a 14-year-old winger who has regularly played for Sporting’s under-16 team this season, has signed a development contract. Since the 2017/18 season, the young footballer has been with the green and whites, continuing his daily routine at the Academy and progressing with the leonine squad.

The footballer has stood out in the under-16 district championship with five goals in eight games, but he has also played five matches in the National Under-15 Championship, although he has yet to score or assist in this category.

The youngster joined the Leonine Academy in the 2017/18 season and, since then, has developed within the green and white structure. The signing of this contract represents recognition of the work he has done over recent seasons.

Sporting once again demonstrates the importance it places on developing and valuing young talents from the Academy. The Alvalade club thus continues to ensure the continuity of promising players who may reach the highest levels of football. Tiago Gimo also recently renewed his contract.
