Pedro Lima is very close to being officially announced as a Sporting signing for the upcoming season. The Brazilian midfielder, still under contract with AVS, is expected to sign a deal valid until 2031 with the Lions during the course of this week.

The agreement between the two clubs was finalized last Friday, with Sporting committing to pay a fixed €4 million for the player. The deal also includes a further €2 million in variables tied to individual and collective objectives.

At Alvalade, Pedro Lima will fit into the new salary tier projected for the player and is expected to be protected by a release clause set at €80 million, a figure usually applied by Sporting’s SAD to midfielders and forwards considered strategic for the team’s future.

With practically all the details settled, all that remains is the final formalization of the deal. For that, the arrival in Lisbon of Brunno Ramos, the player’s representative and a ROGON agent, is still pending, the agency that oversees the Brazilian midfielder’s career.
