Souleymane Faye drops fresh hint over Sporting exit

Gambar artikel:Souleymane Faye drops fresh hint over Sporting exit

Souleymane Faye still has no place at Sporting, and the signs shown during the holidays once again point to a departure in this summer transfer window. The Senegalese winger was seen training in his home country wearing a Zaragoza shirt, at a time when his future is expected to lie far from Alvalade.

The 23-year-old player is making the most of his final days of rest before returning to work, but he continues to attract interest, especially in Spain. For now, the player is looking to revive his career after an underwhelming spell at Sporting.

Signed from Granada in the winter transfer window for €6.5 million, Faye was never able to establish himself under Rui Borges. The attacker took part in just nine official matches, all of them as a substitute coming off the bench, recording one assist during the second half of the season.

Curiously, the winger’s only assist proved decisive, as it allowed Sporting to beat AVS 3-2 in a Portuguese Cup match. Even so, his performances fell short of the expectations created when he arrived at Alvalade.

Despite the existing interest, Sporting’s SAD is facing a complex process in resolving the player’s future, given the investment made just a few months ago. What is certain is that Faye is expected to report to Alcochete on June 30 for the start of pre-season, although he already knows that his future does not lie with Sporting.
