Morten Hjulmand's successor sealed, Sporting arrival date set | OneFootball

Silas Andersen is very close to being officially announced as a Sporting signing. After several weeks of negotiations between the Lions and Häcken, the two clubs finally reached an agreement for the transfer of the Danish midfielder, who already has permission to travel to Portugal.

According to Record, the deal was sealed for a fixed fee of €7.25 million, and could reach €10 million if certain objectives are met. The final agreement also includes a further €2.75 million in add-ons, after a negotiation phase in which Sporting had been working on a proposal of €7 million fixed plus €3 million tied to targets.

With the agreement completed, Silas Andersen is preparing to begin a new chapter in his career. The Denmark under-21 international is expected to arrive in Lisbon in the coming hours, before undergoing the usual medical examinations ahead of signing his contract.

At Alvalade, the 21-year-old midfielder will have a deal waiting for him valid until June 2031. As is the case with other players signed for attacking and midfield positions, he will be protected by a release clause set at €80 million.

Silas Andersen is seen by Sporting’s officials as one of the solutions to strengthen Rui Borges’ midfield, especially given Morten Hjulmand’s increasingly likely departure during this summer transfer window.
