Sporting signing stars v Celtic, abroad stunned: Only €7m, bargain | OneFootball

Silas Andersen's debut in a Sporting shirt left a strong impression and continues to draw praise from fans and specialist pages. After the Lions' 4-1 win over Celtic, the Danish midfielder was one of the players praised for his performance in the second half of the match.

Among the reactions, the page 'Rising Stars XI', which specializes in young talents, stood out by saying Sporting had secured an excellent deal by signing the player from Hacken. "Sporting only paid 7M for Silas Andersen. 22 years old. What a midfielder. An absolute bargain 🚀", the account wrote on social media platform X.

Signed in this summer transfer window, the player joined the Lions after standing out in Swedish football and arrives at Alvalade to strengthen Rui Borges' midfield. Before moving to Portugal, the Danish youth international had also come through the ranks at Inter and Utrecht.

Against Celtic, he came on at half-time and showed quality in ball circulation, composure in build-up play and intensity off the ball, leaving a positive impression in his first appearance in the green-and-white shirt. The display increased the fans' excitement.

The signing represented an investment of around €7 million by Sporting, a figure that, for many observers, could prove to be low if the player confirms the potential he has shown. After the first pre-season test, the midfielder already seems to have won over the club's supporters.
