Carlos Xavier slams Sporting's cut-price sales: I'm fed up | OneFootball

Carlos Xavier did not hide his sadness over the departures of Pedro Gonçalves and Daniel Bragança from Sporting, to Fiorentina and Torino, respectively. The former Sporting midfielder believes the process dragged on for too long and regrets the loss of two more important players.

Speaking to ‘Bola Branca’, Carlos Xavier was blunt. “I’m tired of experiencing sad departures at the Club. Not just these two,” he said, before explaining that he sees the two deals completed by the green-and-whites differently.

In Pote’s case, the former player accepts the figures involved, but he does not feel the same about Bragança. “I think it’s far too low, given the quality he has,” he said. “He is a player who has clearly been very unfortunate with injuries and wanted to aim higher, but he is worth more,” he added.

Carlos Xavier nevertheless believes that both have what it takes to establish themselves in Serie A. “For players with the technical qualities that both of them have, they can shine in any league. Just look at Rodrigo Mora, who is shining at Roma because he has great technical attributes. Pote and Bragança are on the same level,” he argued.
