Breaking! Morten Hjulmand reaches verbal agreement to leave Sporting | OneFootball

Breaking news! Morten Hjulmand is closer to leaving Sporting in this summer transfer window. Atlético Madrid have already reached a verbal agreement in principle with the Danish international and are preparing to move forward with the deal in the coming weeks, with some details already known.

The information is being reported by Bruno Andrade from Mais Futebol, who reveals that Sporting’s officials are aware of the progress in talks between the Spanish club and the green-and-white captain. However, the SAD led by Frederico Varandas is still waiting for an official offer to arrive before starting negotiations between the two clubs.

Sporting remain intent on receiving at least 40 million euros from Hjulmand’s sale. That amount is seen as essential to balance the investment already made in strengthening the midfield, an area that has seen several new faces in this transfer window.

It is worth remembering that Morten Hjulmand, 27, has a contract with Sporting valid until June 2028 and is protected by a release clause set at 80 million euros. Even so, the Lions are willing to lower that amount.

This season, wearing the Sporting shirt, Morten Hjulmand – valued at 45 million euros – featured in 45 matches: 27 in Liga Portugal Betclic, 10 in the Champions League, six in the Portuguese Cup, one in the League Cup and another in the Super Cup. .
