Before leaving Sporting, Geny Catamo sat down with Frederico Varandas | OneFootball

Geny Catamo will leave Sporting for a month to participate in the CAN with Mozambique. Before that, the player will have resolved his contract renewal process with Sporting. It seems that the club has already reached an agreement with the player.

According to information from the newspaper Record, the Mozambican international sat down at the negotiation table with the green and white structure to review the current contract - which lasts until 2028, with a net salary of 400,000 euros per season and a release clause of 60 million, following the already confirmed renewals of Pote, Gonçalo Inácio and even Salvador Blopa.

The process with Geny Catamo seems to have been easy, as the 'number 10' is quite satisfied at Alvalade and has been expecting this new step for some time, also for Sporting to recognize the work he has been doing. Thus, the same source reveals that the 24-year-old player will only sign this new agreement when he returns to Sporting, but it involves an extension until 2030 and an increase of the clause to 80M. The salary is also expected to rise to something between 700 and 750 thousand euros excluding taxes.

This decision by Sporting is indeed a reward for Geny Catamo's dedication under Rui Borges' orders. In the last transfer market, the player was close to leaving due to a very tempting offer, but now he is one of the players the coach does not want to part with.

This season, wearing the Sporting jersey, Geny Catamo - valued at 15 million euros - has already played 20 matches. In the 1,094 minutes he was on the field, the left-footer has scored three goals and assisted his teammates on three other occasions.
