Hélder Amaral blames Sporting for not registering Jota Silva | OneFootball

Hélder Amaral pointed the finger at the person responsible for the failure in registering Jota Silva at Sporting. In an exclusive interview for our Newspaper, the former member of the Leonino Council commented on the late attempt to register the Portuguese international forward by the lions and did not spare criticism of Frederico Varandas.

“The blame is not individual. The blame in a structure and an institution like ours is always on the main person responsible, who is President Frederico Varandas. If he is the one who takes the laurels when things go well, obviously he cannot hide when things go wrong”, he begins to say.

The former CDS-PP deputy speaks of the lions' "incompetence": “Therefore, the responsible, the face of incompetence and the inability to modernize the Club is the President. Now, the responsibility has to be shared by the entire structure, because we are talking about a bureaucratic process of daily management. Someone had to be warned and know how or when the circumstances in which the negotiations were”, added Hélder Amaral.

Next, the former member of the Leonino Council believes that the structure should make an apology for the failed attempt to register Jota Silva: “There are no explanations. I think the only thing they can do is apologize to all the fans and to the player”.

Hélder Amaral says he does not understand how such a situation happens in a Club the size of Sporting: “In such a competitive area, a very demanding area, we end up losing the opportunity. I find no excuse for this. Did any of the procedures change? No. They are known. Was there any change in the player registration procedures. That is, we have known the conditions for registering players forever. If nothing has changed, how is it possible?”, he asks.
