Christian Vaquerohas revealed new information about Geny Catamo’s future, at a time when the Mozambique international continues to be linked with Sunderland, a club that has José Fonte as assistant coach. According to the journalist, the Sporting winger would welcome a move to English football.
"I’m told that Geny Catamo wants to join Sunderland, but he will not force his exit from Sporting," said the transfer market specialist on social media. It is worth remembering that Ipswich are also in the race for Rui Borges’ player.
The player’s willingness, however, does not mean that Geny is prepared to cause problems for Sporting in order to complete the transfer. The winger has maintained a professional attitude and does not intend to pressure Sporting’s board in order to leave Alvalade.
Sunderland therefore remain dependent on reaching an agreement with Sporting to be able to take Geny Catamo to England. On the player’s side, there is openness to the move, but the final decision will continue to rest with the green-and-white officials.
The situation therefore promises to remain a talking point in the coming days, with Geny Catamo wanting to head to Sunderland, but with no intention of forcing a move away from the club with whom he is under contract until 2028 and has a €60 million release clause.
