Sporting intends to complete the transfers of Pedro Gonçalves, Ousmane Diomande and Daniel Bragança later this week. The three deals should bring the Lions’ revenue since the opening of the transfer window close to €200 million.

According to newspaper A Bola, the processes are at a very advanced stage and should be settled before the Liga opener. The Club has already taken in almost €120 million from the sales of Francisco Trincão, Morten Hjulmand, Alisson Santos, Rodrigo Ribeiro and Diogo Travassos.

Pedro Gonçalves is preparing to join Al Ittihad, which has overtaken Al Diriyah in the race for the Portugal international. The transfer should go through for around €25 million, after Pote had already said goodbye to the fans at the Cinco Violinos Trophy.

Diomande is close to joining Nottingham Forest for €40 million, a figure that could rise to €45 million depending on add-ons. Only a few details regarding the payment schedule remain to be settled, while Daniel Bragança is expected to join Olympiakos for a fee of between €8 million and €10 million.

The three players will not be called up by Rui Borges for the visit to Estrela da Amadora, even if any of the deals is delayed. Sporting’s board does not want to take any physical risks that could jeopardize the negotiations, so the trio will be left out of the opening matchday, scheduled for Saturday at 8:30pm in Reboleira.
