Sporting target Belgian market as Yeremay alternative, Varandas shifts | OneFootball

Sporting has found a new alternative to Yeremay Hernández. In the event that the deal between the Alvalade club and Deportivo does not reach an agreement before the transfer window closes, Frederico Varandas has already turned his attention to Nilson Angulo.

According to information reported by journalist Rudy Galetti, the Ecuadorian left winger from Anderlecht is seen as plan B if talks for the young Galician international do not come to fruition, at a time when the transfer window is nearing its end.

Nilson Angulo is not the only alternative solution to Yeremay Hernández. Frederico Varandas has also shown interest in securing the 22-year-old Giannis Konstantelias, the left winger from PAOK and a Greek international. The transfer of this forward would mean the arrival of a potential third Greek player in Rui Borges’ squad, alongside Georgios Vagiannidis and the imminent move of Fotis Ioannidis.

Even so, Sporting’s main focus in this transfer window remains Yeremay Hernández. Frederico Varandas has not given up on the player after a €25M + €5M offer was rejected, and the Alvalade club’s board intends to make an even higher offer than the one previously mentioned.

At the start of the 2025/26 season, Nilson Angulo—valued at 2 million euros—has been one of the standout players in the Anderlecht squad. The forward has already played eight games: four in the Belgian league, two in Europa League qualifying, and another two in Conference League qualifying. In 651 minutes of play, he has already scored two goals and provided five assists.
