Sporting deny St Juste, target centre-back, tense Alvalade atmosphere | OneFootball

Jeremiah St Juste explained his version of events on social media, but Sporting took the opportunity to refute the central defender.

Jeremiah St Juste was demoted to Sporting’s B team. No longer in Rui Borges’ plans, the Dutchman will no longer be part of the main squad and left a lengthy message on social media, claiming he only found out what awaited him through the sports newspapers. However, the Club denied the player’s claims.

To the newspaper A Bola, a Sporting source revealed that St Juste was informed during training about the situation, contrary to what the defender stated publicly. Jer claims he trained as usual and without any repercussions, only becoming aware of the decision upon arriving home.

The player alleges that it was communicated to his brother and agent that he would no longer be considered by Rui Borges and that he would be demoted unless he accepted offers to leave Sporting and move to the Middle East, since the transfer window is still open.

Jeremiah St Juste admits he may not be transferred, since, according to the player, Sporting was informed that the ‘number 3’ would prefer to see out his contract—which runs until the end of the season—in Portugal, as he is expecting the birth of his daughter.

“I will bend, but I will never break, green and white runs through my veins. That’s why I will wear the B team shirt with pride,” said Jeremiah St Juste, making it clear that he will not be leaving Sporting in the near future.
