Midfielder frozen out by Rui Borges could leave Sporting, loan eyed | OneFootball

Koba Koindredi could be on his way back to Swiss football. The French midfielder, who is not part of Rui Borges’ plans for the new season, has attracted interest from Grasshopper, who want to secure the player on loan in this transfer window.

Koindredi, 24, continues to train daily with the B team while waiting for a solution regarding his future.

Switzerland is a very familiar destination for the midfielder. After arriving at Alvalade, Koindredi was loaned to Lausanne and, last season, played for Basel, later returning to the green and whites without managing to earn a place in the main squad.

During this transfer window, the player was also linked with Pafos, coached by Ricardo Sá Pinto, but that move did not materialise. Sporting had signed Koindredi from Estoril in January 2024 for €4.25 million, with the Frenchman making only eight appearances for the first team.

The midfielder’s departure is one of the matters the Lions’ hierarchy wants to resolve before the window closes. Giorgi Kochorashvili is also on the market, with Sevilla leading the race, while Sotiris Alexandropoulos is negotiating the termination of his contract with Sporting before continuing his career at another club.
