Sporting still face two hurdles to sign Silas Andersen | OneFootball

Sporting continue to step up the rebuild of their midfield for 2026/27, and Silas Andersen is getting ever closer to becoming a new signing for the Lions. Talks with Häcken have progressed in recent hours and, at Alvalade, there is hope that the midfielder could arrive in Lisbon before the end of the week to undergo medical tests and sign his contract.

According to Record, there is an agreement in principle between the two clubs. The SAD led by Frederico Varandas is willing to pay a fixed 7 million euros for the Denmark under-21 international, a figure that could rise to 10 million depending on sporting objectives.

At this stage, only details related to payment deadlines and commissions still need to be finalized for the deal to be fully completed. Once those issues are resolved, Sporting will then move forward with the signing of a five-season contract with the 22-year-old midfielder.

João Palhinha’s case remains more complicated. The Portugal international, who is under contract with Bayern Munich until 2028, is still identified as the priority target to fill the spot left by Hjulmand, especially because of his experience and leadership ability.
