Koba Koindredi is very close to leaving Sporting once again. The 24-year-old French midfielder is preparing to join Grasshoppers on loan in this transfer window and begin another spell in Swiss football.

According to newspaper A Bola, negotiations between the parties are at an advanced stage. If the deal is completed, this will be Koba Koindredi's third spell in Switzerland, following loan moves to Lausanne and Basel.

The Frenchman has not managed to establish himself at the Alvalade club since being signed from Estoril in 2023/24 for €4.25 million. Playing for the green-and-whites' first team, he made a total of just eight official appearances.

Koba Koindredi had also come close to joining Pafos, but the Cypriot club ultimately fell behind. Grasshoppers moved forward in the process and are now leading the race to take the midfielder for the 2026/27 season.

With no room for him in Rui Borges' plans for the new season, the midfielder is looking for an environment where he can once again get regular playing time. Sporting is thus moving ahead with another departure from the group of players who are not part of the plans for next season.
