Sporting to sell player linked to domestic violence | OneFootball

Alexandre Brito is not part of Sporting’s plans for next season, Leonino has learned. The midfielder, currently on loan at Pafos in Cyprus, is not included in the sporting project outlined by the green and white club and is not expected to return to the first team squad.

According to information gathered by our newspaper, in addition to his performance on the pitch, off-field issues also weighed in the internal evaluation. The 20-year-old player was involved in a legal case related to an alleged domestic violence incident, a circumstance that ultimately affected his standing within the Club.

Although he was loaned out with the aim of maintaining competitiveness and gaining visibility, the loan was never intended as a step towards future reintegration at Alvalade. The SAD believes that the player’s cycle at Sporting has come to an end, and a new loan is not being considered.

Therefore, the plan is to seek a permanent transfer in the next summer transfer window, allowing the Alvalade club to close the chapter on the U-18 Portugal international, who arrived at Alcochete in 2017, at just 12 years old.

This season, playing for Pafos, Alexandre Brito – valued at 75 thousand euros – has made only two appearances. In the 24 minutes played, the footballer, who is under contract with Sporting until 2027, has no goals or assists to his name.
