Big news for Hjulmand! Sporting captain set for greater responsibility | OneFootball

Morten Hjulmand is experiencing a special moment off the field and will now take on even more responsibility, beyond what he already has at Sporting. Four months after walking down the aisle with Emilie Sofie Nissen, the captain of the green and whites is preparing to become a father for the first time.

The news was shared by Emilie herself on social media, with a message to her audience: "Marriage has brought us greater blessings than we could have imagined. Halfway to meeting our little girl!", wrote the nutritionist, accompanying the text with several photos of the couple.

The post made this Friday, October 24, quickly filled with congratulatory messages, including comments from Hjulmand's teammates - who has been going through a more challenging phase at Sporting -, such as Zeno Debast and Hidemasa Morita, as well as the wife of Matheus Reis.

This season, wearing the Sporting jersey, Morten Hjulmand - valued at 50 million euros - has participated in 12 matches. The captain of the green and whites was a starter in all the matches played by the lions, having scored one goal in 1,090 minutes of play.

Sporting will return to the field next Sunday, October 26, against Tondela. The match, part of the ninth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, against the team led by Ivo Vieira, will be played at Estádio João Cardoso, at 6:00 PM.
