Sporting step up talks for Issa Doumbia, new bid made | OneFootball

Sporting and Venezia have scheduled a new meeting for this Wednesday that could prove decisive in finalising the transfer of Issa Doumbia. According to information reported by Italian journalist Nicolò Schira, negotiations are at a very advanced stage and the expectation is that the parties will be able to reach a final agreement in the next few hours.

The SAD led by Frederico Varandas has put forward an offer that could reach 23 million euros through individual and collective objectives. The figures appeal to Venezia, which now sees the possibility of completing one of the biggest sales in the Italian club’s recent history drawing closer.

Part of that amount will also benefit UC AlbinoLeffe, the Italian midfielder’s former club. The Serie C side secured 10% of a future sale of Doumbia, and could receive up to 2.3 million euros if the deal goes through at the maximum projected figures.

In addition to an agreement between the clubs, Sporting has also reportedly already reached an agreement with the player himself. The Italy under-21 international is expected to sign a contract valid until June 2031, protected by an 80-million-euro release clause, although that clause will only come fully into effect from July 2027.
