Sporting target scores in Spain, takes tally to 21 this season | OneFootball

Almería beat Leganés 2-1 in a match from the 34th round of La Liga 2. Sergio Arribas was once again one of the standout performers. The attacking midfielder, who has been linked with Sporting, scored one of the home side’s goals in the 31st minute, after Gonzalo Melero had opened the scoring (13').

Although the win was only sealed in stoppage time, with a goal from Nico Melamed, Arribas was the main figure of the match. The Spaniard led the attack, moved well between the lines, created several chances and once again showed his finishing ability.

Almería therefore move up to second place with 61 points, entering the automatic promotion spots and confirming the excellent form of the team in which Cristiano Ronaldo has a stake. Still, the Andalusian club do not intend to make the player’s exit easy.

With a contract valid until 2029 and a release clause set at €40 million, the Spanish club are demanding high figures in any potential negotiation, making it unlikely they will accept offers below €25 million. Roma are also in the race.

This season for Almería, Sergio Arribas – valued at €15 million – has made 35 appearances: 34 in the Spanish second division and one in the Copa del Rey. In total, across the 2,812 minutes he has been on the pitch, he has scored 21 goals and provided six assists.
