Barbosa da Cruz on rumour over Sporting player: I see the match as... | OneFootball

It is already known that Morten Hjulmand has emerged as one of the most sought-after players in the squad and could be at the center of the lions’ transfer moves. The Danish international could be on his way to Hugo Viana’s Manchester City. Carlos Barbosa da Cruz has no doubt that the Nordic player will say goodbye to Alvalade.

"I see Hjulmand’s departure as natural, something inevitable. I would very much like Hjulmand to stay; I think he embodies several qualities that I see in Sporting players, but it is good for him to play for one of the most prominent clubs in Europe," he said on CMTV’s Liga D´Ouro program.

The president of the Grupo Stromp has no doubts about the player’s status. "Hjulmand defines an era at Sporting, he grew as a person and as a player at Alvalade, and he will forever remain one of Sporting’s great captains", he said.

Despite the likely departure, Sporting fans are showing concern, given the midfielder’s importance in recent seasons.
