Surreal! Daniel Bragança exit in doubt and Sporting despair

Daniel Bragança is close to leaving Sporting and continuing his career in Italy. The 27-year-old midfielder is just one step away from joining Torino, in a deal that should allow the Lions to pocket €6 million. However, the outcome of the deal could be completely unexpected.

According to the newspaper 'A Bola', the transfer to the Turin club is at risk. At issue is the Italians’ interest in Rolando Mandragora, a Fiorentina midfielder. If Torino signs the Italian player, then Daniel Bragança will no longer have room in the transalpine club’s squad.

Even so, the same source guarantees that the Lions remain confident in this negotiating route. At this moment, PAOK has still not been ruled out of the negotiations, but as no official offer has been made, Sporting’s focus is on the deal with Torino.

Bragança could bring to an end his connection with the club where he was developed and for which he established himself in the first team. Last season, the 27-year-old footballer took part in 24 matches, contributing six goals and one assist. Although he did not always play a leading role, he continued to be an option used by the Lions.

The move to Italian football represents a new chapter in the left-footer’s career. The agreement may be close to being sealed and everything points to him leaving Sporting after several years linked to the Alvalade club, but there is still a possibility he could stay.
