Geny Catamo's Sporting v Vitória SC availability confirmed | OneFootball

Geny Catamo had caused concern at Sporting after going off injured in the match against Tondela (2-2) last Wednesday, due to a sprain in his left ankle. Even so, the medical reassessment brought good news for Rui Borges.

However, the winger was deemed fit and is expected to be an option for the home match against Vitória de Guimarães, scheduled for Monday at 8:15 p.m., partially easing an injury list that remains crowded at this decisive stage of the season.

The 'number 10' ended up leaving the pitch limping, making way for Nuno Santos, who returned to competition after 38 days out due to a muscle injury in his left thigh, a substitution that was, moreover, warmly applauded by the fans at Alvalade.

Even so, Geny Catamo should be the only piece of good news for Rui Borges at this stage. Aside from the players who will not return this season, such as Iván Fresneda and João Simões, Morten Hjulmand, Gonçalo Inácio and even Fotis Ioannidis, if they return to the options, will only do so against Gil Vicente.

This season, wearing the Sporting shirt, Geny Catamo - valued at €20 million - has made 43 appearances: 26 in Liga Portugal Betclic, 11 in the Champions League, five in the Portuguese Cup and one in the Super Cup. In the 2,884 minutes he has been on the pitch, he has eight goals and four assists.
