Winger stalling on Sporting deal could be France-bound | OneFootball

Mauro Couto could be on his way out of Sporting in this transfer window. The right winger was still observed by Rui Borges during the pre-season training camp in Lagos, but his future could lie with a change of club.

According to Santi Aouna, the player, who is now entering the final year of his contract with the Lions and has made the renewal process difficult, is now attracting concrete interest from French football.

A loan is one of the possibilities on the table for Mauro Couto, although Sporting’s SAD is not ruling out a permanent transfer if an offer deemed interesting comes in. Ajax and Eintracht Frankfurt have also been mentioned as clubs monitoring the situation.

Last season, Mauro Couto was one of the regular options for Sporting’s B team. The green-and-white winger played 2,153 minutes in 30 official matches, scoring two goals and providing three assists.

Valued at €1.5 million by Transfermarkt, the player is now trying to understand what the next step in his career will be. The competition in the first-team squad could make an exit easier, with several European clubs keeping a close eye on the outcome.
