On Debast's birthday, Sporting fans send wishes to Sandro | OneFootball

Sporting made a point of sending a birthday message to Zeno Debast, the Belgian central defender of Sporting. The Lions published a message through social media and their official channels, congratulating the player, who celebrates his birthday this Friday, October 24.

Zeno Debast turns 22 during a challenging time of the season, just two days after getting injured against Marseille in a match that the Lions won 2-1. The central defender already knows he will be out for at least a month away from the fields.

Sporting published an image of Zeno Debast in the green and white jersey, with the following caption: "The National Champion celebrates another birthday today. Congratulations, Lion!". The Belgian national team also made a similar post shortly after.

Sporting fans had a different approach. On social media, many green and white fans wished happy birthday to... Sandro - a name by which Debast is affectionately called by the Lions' fans, a movement that started last season and which the Belgian himself honored during the national championship celebrations.

At the start of this season, Zeno Debast - valued at 30 million euros - has already played 13 official matches wearing Sporting's jersey. The Belgian international for the Lions has recorded 855 minutes of play so far, but still without any goals or assists to his name.
