The closing of the transfer market has sparked yet another controversy within the world of Sporting. In addition to the green and whites failing to sign Jota Silva, they were also unable to ‘offload’ Jeremiah St. Juste. As a result, the Lions chose to relegate the center-back to the B team, which has already prompted a reaction from him, though it was later deleted.
According to what was reported by the newspaper Record on the morning of Thursday, September 4, the player under Rui Borges, through his social networks, removed the statement reacting to the alleged decision by the green and white management. However, the same source assures that the Dutchman did so after Sporting reacted to the incident.
Through an official statement published on the club’s website, the administration, led by Frederico Varandas, categorically denied everything that St. Juste had said in his reaction to the news that he would be demoted to Sporting’s secondary squad.
The information note published by the green and whites recalls that, throughout the process, the Dutch center-back—who was close to leaving to join Osasuna—claimed he was not informed by those in charge, an ‘accusation’ that the management denies, stating they did inform the player about his sporting future with the Lions.
However, according to what has been determined, Jeremiah St. Juste continues to stand his ground, maintaining his version that he was never informed of the situation. In light of this case, during this Thursday, Sporting has already made it known that it is willing to resort to all legal means to restore the truth, in favor of stability within Rui Borges’ squad.
