AVS SAD president speaks on Sporting's interest in Pedro Lima | OneFootball

Miguel Socorro, vice-president of AVS SAD, addressed Sporting’s interest in Pedro Lima. In that regard, the AVS official, without mentioning the Lions by name, admitted that there have been “approaches from several clubs and some advanced talks”.

“He came through the entire youth system at Palmeiras, he is very intelligent, and we believe in him a lot. We have approaches from several clubs, some advanced talks, but nothing concrete. We will see what happens, but we believe we will be able to help him progress in this market,” he began by saying, in statements to Sport TV.

Miguel Socorro admits that Pedro Lima’s signing was a conscious decision from the start: “We immediately believed in his potential when we signed him. He had his period of adaptation, but as the games went by he started to emerge, and this end of the season has proven his ability.”

Avoiding speaking about Sporting’s interest in the player, the vice-president of AVS SAD concluded by praising the Brazilian midfielder’s ability: “Those who work with him daily know that he is 100 percent professional, always with his feet firmly on the ground. We believe he could leave in this transfer window and that he has very great potential.”

This season, wearing the AVS SAD shirt, Pedro Lima – valued at €400,000 – has made 28 appearances: 25 in Liga Portugal Betclic and three in the Taça de Portugal.
