Official! Diego Veiga agrees deal with Sporting | OneFootball

It’s official. Diego Veiga, the 14-year-old winger who has regularly played for Sporting’s under-16 team this season, has signed a youth contract. Since the 2017/18 season, he has been with the green and whites, and the young footballer will thus continue his daily routine at the Academy, developing with the leonine squad.

The footballer has stood out in the under-16 district championship with five goals in eight matches, but he has also played five games in the National Under-15 Championship, although he has yet to record a goal or an assist at this level.

The youngster joined the leonine Academy in the 2017/18 season and, since then, has progressed within the green and white structure. The signing of this contract represents recognition of the work he has put in over recent seasons.

Sporting once again demonstrates the importance it places on youth development and the promotion of young talents from the Academy. The Alvalade club thus continues to ensure the continuity of promising players who may one day reach the highest levels of football. Tiago Gimo also recently renewed his contract.
