Sporting eye Elye Wahi as option for Rui Borges' attack | OneFootball

Sporting remain attentive to the transfer market and one of the names that has recently emerged on the Lions’ radar is Elye Wahi. According to French outlet Mediafoot, the green-and-white officials have already begun assessing the situation of the 23-year-old striker, who belongs to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Meanwhile, the club led by Frederico Varandas continues to work on solutions to strengthen Rui Borges’ squad ahead of the 2026/27 season.

Wahi arrived at Frankfurt but ultimately failed to establish himself in the Bundesliga, in a scenario similar to the one he had previously experienced at Marseille. Given that situation, the Germans chose to loan him to Nice during the winter transfer window.

The move proved positive for the young striker. In just six months at Nice, the Frenchman regained confidence and form, ending the season with seven goals and two assists in 17 official matches. His performances once again attracted the attention of several European clubs, including Sporting.

In addition to the Lions, Lens are also closely monitoring the forward’s situation, considering a possible return for the player to the club where he previously shone. The French side secured qualification for the Champions League and intends to strengthen its attacking department for next season.
