Sporting traveled to the Algarve without Ousmane Diomande, Pedro Gonçalves and Giorgi Kochorashvili, who stayed in Lisbon at a time when their respective transfer processes are well advanced. Sporting’s SAD preferred not to expose the three players to any risk of injury before the deals are finalized.
The departure of the trio could bring around €75 million into the Club’s coffers. Diomande is expected to join Nottingham Forest for a fixed €40 million, while Pedro Gonçalves is very close to moving to Saudi Arabian side Al Diriyah in a deal worth around €30 million.
Meanwhile, Giorgi Kochorashvili is preparing to return to Spain, where he is expected to join Getafe. The Georgian midfielder will go out on loan, with the club from the neighboring country’s capital holding an option to buy set at €5 million.
In addition to the three players, Daniel Bragança was also not part of the Sporting party. The midfielder’s future is still undecided and, for now, he has remained in Lisbon while awaiting a decision on whether he will stay at Alvalade or leave during this transfer window.
He is recovering from accumulated exertion after returning late for pre-season training. Nuno Santos, João Simões, Ibrahima Ba and Zeno Debast remain under the care of the medical department, bringing the number of absences for the warm-up match against Nottingham Forest to eight.
