Deal done! Sebastián Osorio on his way 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 join the under-23s.

The Colombian player arrives from Universitario de Deportes. The footballer will cost around €750,000 plus add-ons yet to be determined, while the South American club retained 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 1.73 meters tall, mainly operates as an attacking midfielder and has already been called up to the under-20 national team setup, but for Peru, confirming the potential widely recognized in him.

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

Sebastián Osorio will join Sporting’s under-23s, coached by Leandro Grimi, 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 progression.
