Deal done! Sebastián Osorio heading to Sporting | OneFootball

It’s a done deal. Sporting have secured the signing of Sebastián Osorio. The footballer, just 18 years old, has signed a three-year deal and is expected in Portugal to finalize the final details of the transfer. The player is set to represent the under-23s.

The Colombian player arrives from Universitario de Deportes. The transfer will cost around €750,000 plus add-ons yet to be determined, with the South American club retaining 20% of any future transfer fee for the player.

The footballer is seen as one of the brightest prospects in his country. The creative player, who stands at 1.73 meters, mainly operates as an attacking midfielder and has already been called up to the under-20 national team camp, but for Peru, confirming the potential widely recognized in him.

Last season, the youngster was loaned to Universidad César Vallejo of Peru’s Liga 2, where he continued his competitive development, allowing him to gain important minutes before making the leap to European football.

Sebastián Osorio will join Leandro Grimi’s Sporting under-23 side, where he will look to adapt to Portuguese football and continue to develop. The signing fits into the Lions’ strategy of recruiting young international talents with room for growth.
