Souleymane Faye responds to Sporting interest | OneFootball

Sporting remains active in the transfer market and has focused on signing the Senegalese winger Souleymane Faye, 22, currently playing for Granada. The player has been aware of the interest for a few weeks and has shown enthusiasm about the possibility of wearing the green and white jersey.

According to the newspaper 'Record', in recent weeks, the athlete has gathered various references about the Alvalade Club's project, which has motivated him with the prospect of moving to Portugal. The Sporting management has been trying to align positions with the Andalusians and formally advance with a proposal.

On the Spanish side, coach Pacheta has publicly commented on Sporting's interest, admitting that he does not want to lose the player. In recent statements, he highlighted the potential of the young player and confessed that he prefers to keep him in the squad, although he acknowledges that the final decision is not in his hands (Learn more HERE).

Robert Silva, a 20-year-old winger playing for Copenhagen, is also another potential option to strengthen Sporting's attack in the January transfer window. Despite being close to finalizing the signing of Luís Guilherme, the Alvalade Club remains active.

This season, Souleymane Faye — valued at 1.5 million euros — has already played 20 official matches for Granada: 18 in the Spanish second division and two in the Copa del Rey. In the 1,574 minutes he has been on the field, the player has recorded two goals and six assists.
