Leonino exclusive - Sporting man not in Rui Borges' plans, off in summer | OneFootball

Sporting are already beginning to prepare changes to the squad for the next summer transfer window, and one of the names under internal evaluation is Kauã Oliveira. The Brazilian midfielder, who signed permanently until 2030, is not part of Rui Borges' plans and is heading for the exit door, Leonino has learned.

According to what our newspaper has found out, his development has not fully matched what was expected by the technical staff. Despite the investment made and the long-term commitment, the player has still not managed to establish himself consistently, not even being a regular starter for the B team.

Given this scenario, Sporting are considering reassessing the player's situation in the next summer transfer market. As part of the squad restructuring plan, Kauã Oliveira will be one of the players put on the market, as he will not be an option for Rui Borges.

Sporting's SAD continues to pursue careful squad management and does not rule out significant changes, especially involving players who have not yet fully established themselves. The future of the 22-year-old player is unlikely to be with the green-and-white club.

In the current 2025/26 sporting season, Kauã Oliveira - valued at €200,000 - made 20 appearances for Sporting: 12 for the B team and eight for the under-23s. The midfielder, who made his first-team debut last season, has scored two goals in 1,062 minutes played.
