Sporting’s deal with Spanish club close to falling through | OneFootball

Deal between Sporting and Spanish club is about to fall through and Rui Borges' pupil's future is uncertain

The deal between Sporting and Osasuna for Jeremiah St. Juste is very close to falling through. After learning that he would not be a regular option for Rui Borges this season, the Dutch defender is looking for a new club in this transfer market, with the Pamplona club being the main interested party.

According to information advanced by Notícias ao Minuto, the pre-agreement established between the two parties in the deal has been broken in the final phase of the talks due to tax issues. In light of this information, the Spanish management even presented a new proposal, which did not meet Frederico Varandas' expectations.

Although the deal that could see Jeremiah St. Juste leave Sporting is not completely ruled out, the scenario is pessimistic for the Pamplona side, as the Osasuna scouting team has already returned to the market in search of an alternative to the Dutchman.

Despite still being part of the Alvalade Club's plans, and possibly not even leaving in this transfer window, the 'number 3' of the lions is a confirmed absence in Rui Borges' call-up to face Nacional da Madeira this Saturday, August 23rd, at 6 pm.

In 2024/2025, St. Juste – valued at 6 million euros – played 28 games with the Sporting jersey: 14 in the Liga Portugal Betclic, six in the Champions League, five in the Taça de Portugal, and three in the Taça da Liga. In total, the defender accumulated 1,385 minutes, without scoring or making any assists.
