Official! Sporting wonderkid extends contract with Varandas until 2028 | OneFootball

It's official. Sporting has announced the contract renewal with Maísa Correia until 2028. The women's football team player, who arrived at Alvalade when she was just 11 years old, thus extends a connection that bridges the past and the future and reinforces the Club's commitment to youth development.

“I have been at Sporting for many years and this step means that the Club continues to believe in me,” she told the club’s media at the time of the official announcement of her new contract. The player recalled the best moments she has experienced at Alvalade.

“My best moments wearing the Sporting shirt were winning the Championship with the under-19 team in 2022/2023, winning the Super Cup in 2024/2025, and making my debut for the first team,” she recalled. The athlete wants to keep growing to reach the National Team.

“My goals with this continuity at the Club are clear: to help the team and continue to develop individually. To have more space in the team, to help the team as much as possible, and to be called up to the senior National Team. I’ve been here for a few years now, I’ve always been growing, and I want to keep doing so, to learn even more,” she stated.

Maísa Correia described herself as an intense, persistent, and committed athlete: “I like to win every ball and I always want to help the team do its best to win the three points.” To conclude, the 18-year-old addressed the fans: “Sporting fans, come and support us. At home or away, we’re waiting for you”, said the footballer who started in the victory against Rosengard (3-0).
