Since Frederico Varandas took over the presidency of Sporting, the Club has invested a total of 414.85 million euros, with the current season being the most expensive in history: in total, the Lions spent 89.17 million euros.
The most expensive signing during this period is also the most expensive signing in the history of the green and whites, according to Transfermarkt. Viktor Gyokeres, the striker who led Sporting to invest a total of 24 million euros, after achieving the sporting objectives stipulated in the contract.
The top executive was also responsible for the biggest sale in Sporting’s history, also starring the Swedish striker, whose move to Arsenal has already brought in 66.9 million euros. The Swedish international was, therefore, one of the main reasons why the current President has enabled the Club to collect 677.78 million euros from the sale of footballers over the last, roughly, eight years.
Another major deal was that of Bruno Fernandes: in January 2020, the Lions sold the midfielder to Manchester United, in a transfer that, following the achievement of objectives, brought in 65 million euros for the club.
Frederico Varandas was re-elected president of Sporting, after being the most voted candidate in the elections held last Saturday: the current leader, who has been in office since 2018, received 89.47% of the votes from the green and white members, compared to only 6.28% for the only other candidate, Bruno Sá.
