Exclusive Leonino – Sporting key figure at risk, Varandas issues ultimatum | OneFootball

Filipe Neto's position is at risk in Sporting's under-23 team, our Journal has learned. The recent results have not been satisfactory for the green and white management, led by Frederico Varandas, who is even considering ending the coach's contract if nothing changes, as we reveal in this Leonino Exclusive.

According to sources close to the process, the Alvalade Club's structure is demanding more from the coach of the lions' team, which is competing in the Champion Qualification Phase of the Liga Revelação, but whose results have fallen short of expectations.

The reality is that, at this time, Sporting's under-23 team is going through a very difficult phase: in the last seven games, the green and whites have recorded five defeats and two draws. The last time the young lions tasted victory was on December 22, in a 2-1 win against UD Leiria.

Regarding the Liga Revelação, things are not going well either. The team led by Filipe Neto occupies the eighth and last position in this phase of the competition, with only two points from six matches played. In Alvalade, it is believed that these results do not reflect the talent present in the team.

While serving Sporting's under-23 team, Filipe Neto has already overseen 39 matches. In total, the coach, who has also been in charge of the junior level, achieved 13 victories, recorded 12 draws, and suffered 14 defeats. The lions will return to the field looking to break this negative streak next Tuesday, March 3, against Leixões (3:00 PM).
