The current sports season has been very difficult for defender Zeno Debast. According to our newspaper, in an Exclusive Leonino, the center-back is quite frustrated due to the constant injuries he has recently sustained. The Belgian international wished to have a different impact at Sporting, however, physical problems have hindered his establishment in the team.
The 'number 6' has been out of Rui Borges' regular options since last January due to injury - he played nine minutes against Arouca. Due to this prolonged absence, the player has only participated in 15 official matches. This record contrasts sharply with the 40 matches already played by the lions during the current campaign.
Zeno Debast's physical ordeal has been a constant this season, depriving him of competitive regularity. However, the player finally seems to be part of Sporting's plans to face the rest of the season - he was on the bench against Braga - trying to overcome this moment at Alvalade.
Besides that, it's worth noting that the physical instability is deterring potential clubs interested in signing the Belgian. The demanding international market hesitates due to the clear lack of minutes recently accumulated by the footballer while serving the lions.
This season, Zeno Debast - valued at 30 million euros - has 15 official matches with Sporting's jersey. The Belgian international has so far accumulated 872 minutes of play, but still without any goals or assists to his personal account.
