Official! Pote leaves Sporting for Serie A’s bottom club | OneFootball

Pedro Gonçalves was officially unveiled as a new Fiorentina signing and is already registered for Serie A. The former Sporting number 8 is therefore eligible to make his debut for his new club as early as next Saturday, September 5, against Torino.

The Portugal international travelled to Italy, where he underwent his medical examinations and formalized his move to the Florence club. Pote arrives on loan from Sporting, in a deal that includes a mandatory purchase option worth €22.5 million if he features in half of Fiorentina’s official matches.

In addition to that amount, there is a further €2.5 million related to the loan, meaning the Lions could receive up to €25 million from the deal. The agreement therefore allows the player’s future to depend on his performances and usage at the Italian side.

After the move was made official by the bottom-placed team in Serie A, Sporting also took to social media to leave a message of thanks to the player. Pote leaves Alvalade after six seasons in green and white, a period in which he became one of the team’s main figures.
