Pedro Lima is very close to being officially announced as a Sporting signing for the upcoming season. The Brazilian midfielder, still under contract with AVS, is expected to sign a deal valid until 2031 with the Lions later this week.

The agreement between the two clubs was finalized last Friday, with Sporting committing to pay a fixed €4 million for the player. The deal also includes a further €2 million in variables dependent on individual and collective objectives.

At Alvalade, Pedro Lima will fit into the new salary tier projected for the player and is expected to be protected by a release clause set at €80 million, a figure usually applied by Sporting’s SAD to midfielders and forwards considered strategic for the team’s future.

With practically all the details settled, only the final formalization of the operation remains. For that, the only thing missing is the arrival in Lisbon of Brunno Ramos, the player’s representative and a ROGON agent, the agency that manages the Brazilian midfielder’s career.

Pedro Lima’s signing is part of the deep overhaul Sporting’s midfield is expected to undergo next season.
