The future of Geny Catamo remains open between a possible contract renewal with Sporting and a departure in the next summer transfer window, at a time when several European clubs are closely monitoring the Mozambique international.
“Would it be a good club for Geny? It depends on the circumstances, the context, the team’s ambitions and the club’s ambitions for next season. They are currently 16th in Serie A and have had a season far below expectations,” said the coach, in comments to his press office.
Luís Gonçalves even believes that the ‘number 10’ has the quality for higher levels: “Honestly, I think Geny is a player for another level, to join a club with greater ambitions. However, everything depends on the context and, if used well, he could be a good option,” he added.
The coach also highlighted the Mozambican’s development in recent months, praising not only his attacking ability but also his growth in defensive situations. “Because of his characteristics, he can make a difference in any league. He is very explosive, has been developing very well and is also more effective defensively. He is a game-changer and a finisher,” he explained.
If he stays at Sporting he will be a key player, but I think this is the right time for him to leave. I believe the player also wants to experience other realities,” he concluded.
