Gonçalo Inácio reveals all after new Sporting deal (video) | OneFootball

Sporting released a video with an interesting quick response challenge featuring Gonçalo Inácio, right after announcing the renewal with the Portuguese international, which was communicated last Thursday, December 11th, ensuring the player remains 'secured' at Alvalade until 2030.

In his responses, the green and white defender quickly pointed out Cristiano Ronaldo as his childhood idol, and also considered Nuno Mendes, a former Sporting player, as the best player currently. Besides that, Inácio was also asked about the most memorable moment wearing the lion on his chest.

In response, the Portuguese international chose the match against Boavista in the 2020/21 season, which Sporting won 1-0, with a goal by Paulinho. This victory ultimately led to the lions becoming national champions after a 19-year drought.

Gonçalo Inácio renewed with Sporting until 2030, keeping his release clause at 60 million euros - something the Sporting management tried to address. This contract extension comes just weeks before the transfer market reopens, where the 'number 25' is highly sought after.

In the 2025/26 sports season, Gonçalo Inácio - valued at 45 million euros - is one of the pillars of Sporting. The green and white central defender has accumulated, so far, 1,710 minutes in 19 games, in which he has already managed to make two assists for goals.
