“I’m very happy to have joined this gigantic club,” he said.

The 19-year-old revealed that he spoke to former Sporting midfielder and West Ham teammate Mateus Fernandes, and his former manager at Palmeiras Abel Ferreira – also an ex-Sporting player – before completing the move, who both gave glowing references regarding the Lisbon outfit.

Guilherme is expected to go straight into the squad for Sporting’s Taça da Liga semi-final against Vitória on Tuesday evening.
