Varandas eyes new deal for Sporting champion in 2024/25 | OneFootball

Sporting is expected to soon move forward with the contract renewal of Mauro Couto. The young Lions player made his debut for the main green and white team in 2024/25, even receiving the champion’s medal in the title that secured the club’s back-to-back championships.

Our newspaper reveals, in this Leonino Exclusive, that the leaders of Sporting remain very pleased with Mauro Couto’s development, and, as such, want to ensure that the player’s future is tied to the Alvalade club for the coming years.

Therefore, the 20-year-old player, who has been playing for Sporting’s B team this season, will have his contract reviewed, with the most important part of this process being the extension of the agreement that links the player to the Alvalade club.

Mauro Couto is one of the most promising youngsters from Sporting’s academy. He was promoted to the main team by João Pereira in 2024/25, having played two matches for the senior green and white squad—one in the League and another in the Portuguese Cup, which grants him the status of double winner for last season.

This year, Mauro Couto has played four matches for the national under-20 team, and, although he has not yet played for the main team—where he has already trained—he is a regular presence in the Lions’ B team. He has already played 10 games under João Gião, scoring two goals and providing one assist. He has, moreover, been an important figure in the outstanding campaign of the secondary green and white team.
