Sunderland offer Geny Catamo €15m net and pile pressure on Sporting | OneFootball

Geny Catamo has a net salary offer worth 15 million euros from Sunderland waiting for him. The English club are offering the Sporting winger a four-season contract, plus an optional fifth, with wages of 3 million per season.

According to newspaper A Bola, the Premier League side is also preparing a new approach to Sporting’s SAD, but the fixed fee will remain below 40 million euros. Even if the overall package comes close to that mark through objectives considered quite achievable, the figures are not expected to be enough to convince Sporting.

Sunderland’s first offer had been 30 million fixed, plus 10 million in add-ons, and it was swiftly rejected. Rui Borges considers Geny Catamo indispensable, and the club’s structure wants to avoid a departure at a stage when it would have little time to find an alternative, leaving Luís Guilherme as the main solution for the right side of the attack.

Everton and Ipswich Town are also monitoring the situation and could still enter the race, while in Italy there have been rumours involving Ruben Amorim’s Milan. For now, however, Sunderland are the club pushing hardest for the Mozambique international and the one willing to offer him financial terms far superior to his current ones.

Geny Catamo is under contract with Sporting until 2029 and has a 60-million-euro release clause. After finishing 2025/26 with eight goals and four assists in 47 matches, he began the new season as a starter in the first two rounds and provided an assist both against Estrela da Amadora and against Vitória de Guimarães.
