Sporting is already counting on being able to give Zeno Debast some minutes in the match against Marinhense, for the Portuguese Cup, but their thoughts are already on the Champions League. The player is recovering and will soon be back in Rui Borges’ plans.

This information is being reported by the newspaper A Boa, which also reveals that he will be the first among Sporting’s injured players to return. The Belgian international is expected to get some minutes in the cup competition so that, right after, he can be at full strength for the Champions League, against Club Brugge.

It’s worth remembering that the Sporting center-back suffered a knee injury during the match against Marseille, which took place on October 22 – meaning he is approaching four weeks away from the pitch.

At the start of this season, Zeno Debastvalued at 30 million euros – has already played 13 official matches wearing the Sporting shirt. The Belgian international for the Lions has, so far, played 855 minutes, but is yet to score or provide an assist in his personal tally.

The green and white club will only return to the field on Saturday, November 22, against Marinhense. The match, part of the fourth round of the Portuguese Cup, against the team led by Rui Sacramento, will be played at 18:00 in Alvalade.
