Sporting move on from Yeremay and Kevin thanks to surprise signing | OneFootball

Yeremay Hernández and Kevin were concrete targets for Sporting in the summer transfer market. However, the Lions failed to sign either player and were left with few options for the left side of the attack, but Alisson Santos has been a pleasant surprise.

According to information reported by the newspaper Record, Rui Borges did not expect such a big impact from the Brazilian, so much so that the Lions tried for Jota Silva until the last minute of the summer transfer window, with the intention of having Alisson spend more time with the B team.

However, the Brazilian winger ended up staying permanently with the main squad, since Sporting did not sign any player for the position, and has surprised Rui Borges, with a huge impact on the team, despite playing only a few minutes.

Shining at Sporting, Alisson Santos dreams of reaching the Brazil national team. Messias, the player’s father, represented Tunisia and the forward is also eligible to play for the country, maintaining constant contact with officials from the Federation.

Despite being a regular pick in Rui Borges’ squads, Alisson Santos – valued at 1.5 million euros – has not had much playing time at the start of this season. Since his arrival at Sporting, the Brazilian winger has only accumulated 42 minutes in four appearances, with one goal scored and one assist.
