Official! No 6 has left Benfica and joined Sporting | OneFootball

It’s official: Beatriz Cameirão has signed for Sporting. The midfielder left Benfica for the Lions after terminating, by mutual agreement, the professional contract that tied her to the Eagles. The departure took place last week and, just a few days later, the move to the other side of the Segunda Circular was confirmed.

The midfielder, who spent six years at Benfica, has now signed a three-season contract with Sporting, keeping her at the Lisbon club until June 2029. Beatriz Cameirão leaves the Luz with an impressive résumé. During her time with Benfica’s senior team, the number 6 made 139 appearances and won 11 trophies.

The midfielder’s honours include four Liga BPI titles, three League Cups, two Portuguese Cups, one Super Cup and one Second Division Championship. The latter was won in the season in which she made her official debut for Benfica. The player also has 47 caps for Portugal’s youth national teams, now bringing a six-year chapter at the Luz club to a close.

In her presentation as Sporting’s new signing, Beatriz Cameirão said she was happy about the new step in her career and highlighted the confidence shown by Sporting’s structure: "I’m very happy to be here. Sporting’s interest emerged and became a reality. I felt that the coaching staff value me, that they wanted me here, and I can only be thankful for that," she told the club’s official media.

The midfielder also had a special word for Bárbara Paulino, Sporting’s women’s football director, for the work done to complete the signing. "I’m very happy to be at Sporting and what I promise is that I will give my best for this shirt," she assured.
