Sporting quartet gives Frederico Varandas extra work | OneFootball

Varandas, President of Sporting, saw the transfer market close but still has much to negotiate within the football squad.

Frederico Varandas is currently in talks for four key renewals in the Sporting team: Francisco Trincão, Pedro Gonçalves, Geny Catamo, and Ousmane Diomande. These are the names, in this order, that are keeping the green and white President busy, even after the transfer market has closed.

In order, then, the Club will start with Francisco Trincão, especially since his renewal is the closest to being completed. The winger, who already had a contract until 2027, is expected to renew until 2030, with a salary increase and entry into the group of Club captains - a recognition of the status he has gained at Alvalade in recent seasons, which fulfills a plan already set in motion with the purchase of the remaining share of his rights from Barcelona.

Next, Pedro Gonçalves, who according to the newspaper A Bola, will undergo a renewal that is more symbolic than anything else. The midfielder/winger, an international for Portugal, has a contract until 2027, which is expected to be extended by another year, with the clause remaining at 80 million euros. This way, Sporting remains protected in case the player is targeted in the next summer's transfer market.

Geny Catamo will also see his contract reviewed, in this case, almost as a recognition of the importance he has gained in the team. The winger has a valid contract until 2028, so it is possible that the duration years will not change (nor the clause, which is at 60 million), but the Mozambican will see his salary increased, as he is currently among the lowest tiers in the green and white squad.

Lastly, Ousmane Diomande. The process for the Ivorian has been shelved, and the lions know it won't be easy, but they will now proceed with talks for the renewal. His contract ends in 2027, so any changes should involve extending the bond that ties him to Alvalade, to protect the lions from clubs in leagues with greater financial capabilities.
