Sporting must pay €15 million for Rui Borges’ ‘plan B’ | OneFootball

If Sporting intends to eventually sign Wesley from Al Nassr, they already know they will have to spend around 15 million euros. Seen as a cheaper alternative to Yeremay Hernández, the green and whites are looking for options to bring a midfielder to Alvalade in the next transfer window.

The information is being reported by the newspaper A Bola, as well as by Ekrem Konur - a Turkish journalist specializing in the transfer market -, who reveals that the Brazilian is open to a move to Europe, with the Saudi Arabian club considering negotiating for amounts between 10 and 15 million euros.

The same source also reveals that Al Nassr, home to Cristiano Ronaldo and Jorge Jesus, is open to receiving offers for Wesley and has not closed the door on a potential departure of the player in January. However, Sporting may not proceed with his signing.

According to the latest information, the Alvalade club had identified the player in the summer, but nothing more than that. Yeremay remains Sporting's main target for January and the Brazilian does not seem to be part of the plans.

Wesley - currently valued at 4 million euros - was used by Jorge Jesus in nine matches throughout the season. In the 490 minutes he was on the pitch, the 20-year-old player scored two goals and provided an assist wearing the Al Nassr jersey.
