Midfielder linked with Sporting warns Varandas: I'm expensive | OneFootball

Silas Andersen continues to move closer to Sporting and the midfielder himself has already publicly admitted that he would welcome a move to Alvalade. The Häcken player spoke about Sporting’s interest after scoring, this Monday, the goal that spared his team from defeat away to Elfsborg.

The 21-year-old Denmark under-21 international is enjoying an excellent spell in Sweden and has been one of Häcken’s standout players this season. Andersen has featured in eight of the nine rounds of the Swedish league, as well as two Cup matches, already totaling more than 800 minutes and two goals scored.

According to newspaper A Bola, Sporting remains in active negotiations with the Swedish club to complete the signing of the midfielder, in a deal expected to be worth around 10 million euros. Asked about the possibility of moving to Portuguese football, the player did not hide his enthusiasm.

“Yes, 100%. I would miss Sweden, which has really been a very good place for me. But now we’ll see what Erik has to say,” the Danish midfielder said, referring to Häcken sporting director Erik Friberg.

Silas Andersen also acknowledged that he is pleased to see the interest generated around his name. “I didn’t know I was worth that much, but apparently I’m an expensive player,” he said with a laugh, before adding: “It’s really important and a great recognition that they have noticed me here at Häcken.”

On the Swedish club’s side, Erik Friberg preferred not to go into details about the negotiation process, but confirmed that there is strong interest in the player at this stage. “A lot of people are interested, but I’m not going to say anything,” the official said.
