Sporting continue to work on the reactivation of the Curva Sul at Alvalade and have already presented a concrete proposal to the organized supporter groups.

According to information reported by Record, the solution involves creating a Zone with Special Conditions for Supporters’ Access and Stay (ZCAEP), located in stand A of the South End. The project is also part of the renovation plans for Estádio José Alvalade, with the entire stand expected to be converted to a 'safe standing' system from the 2027/28 season onward.
