Record deal: Swedes delighted with Silas Andersen sale to Sporting | OneFootball

Silas Andersen’s arrival at Sporting continues to make headlines in Sweden. After the Danish midfielder was officially unveiled in Alvalade, Häcken sporting director Martin Ericsson expressed his satisfaction with the transfer and described the deal as a historic one for the Nordic club.

In comments published by Häcken’s official media channels, the executive highlighted the scale of the transfer completed with the Lions. "We are very happy and proud of this record deal, both in terms of the fee and the prestige of the club we are selling to. It is further proof that our strategic plan is working," he said.

Martin Ericsson’s remarks came after Sporting announced the signing of the Denmark under-21 international, who has signed a contract until 2031. The midfielder arrives in Alvalade to strengthen the middle of the park in Rui Borges’ side and is seen by the Sporting hierarchy as an investment for both the present and the future.

The deal between the two clubs could reach €10 million, including a fixed fee and add-ons, making it the biggest sale in Häcken’s history. With the arrival of Silas Andersen, Sporting are strengthening an area of the pitch that is expected to undergo significant changes during this summer transfer window.

At 21, the midfielder leaves Sweden after establishing himself as one of Häcken’s standout players. In 2026, he made 11 appearances for the Swedish side and scored three goals, numbers that helped attract the interest of Sporting’s decision-makers.
