Sporting splash out on St Juste, centre-back forced to rethink his approach | OneFootball

Jeremiah St Juste was reprimanded by Sporting, deleted his post, and may stay in the B team until he finds a new club in the January market

Jeremiah St Juste has been demoted to Sporting's B team. The central defender starts work with João Gião's squad this Friday, September 5, after having spoken with Bernardo Palmeiro and been reprimanded to delete the post criticizing the Club's attitude.

According to information advanced by the Record newspaper, Jer costs 3.2 million euros per year to the lion's coffers, being at the top of the list of expenses of the green and whites. As Frederico Varandas confirmed, the Dutchman is the fifth central in Rui Borges' choices, so the salary does not make any sense.

Ahead of him, the 'jersey 3' of the lions has Ousmane Diomande, Gonçalo Inácio, Zeno Debast and Eduardo Quaresma, which leads the Board to classify St Juste's salary as unbearable, opening doors to his departure, which did not happen in the summer market.

Therefore, the player was demoted to the B team and criticized Sporting's attitude on social media. The post has already been deleted, after being reprimanded by the Club. The sports daily assures that St Juste's goal is to find a competitive squad and in which he receives similar values, but he is ready to terminate the current contract and look for a destination only in January.

In 2024/2025, St. Juste – valued at 6 million euros – played 28 games with Sporting's jersey: 14 in the Liga Portugal Betclic, six in the Champions League, five in the Portugal Cup and three in the League Cup. In total, the defender accumulated 1,385 minutes, without having scored or made any assist.
