Amorim on Sporting’s radar, January window could bring fresh surprises | OneFootball

Sporting is already making plans for the next season and intends to sign three midfielders. The Lions are expected to lose two important players from the squad, Morten Hjulmand and Hidemasa Morita. Alex Amorim, a player from Alverca, is one of the names on the table to strengthen the squad.

Journalist Bruno Andrade even suggests the possibility that the Lions could sign the 20-year-old Brazilian midfielder as early as January, in order to have a third "rotation" player, allowing him to adapt to the squad before securing a starting spot in Rui Borges’ eleven from the 2026/27 season onwards.

Rui Borges currently has six midfielders at his disposal: Morten Hjulmand, João Simões, Hidemasa Morita, Giorgi Kochorashvili, Daniel Bragança, and Rayan Lucas. The player from the Ribatejo club could join Alvalade in the next transfer window.

Alex Amorim, who has a market value of one million euros, joined Alverca in the last summer transfer window, coming from Fortaleza. He is one of the standouts in Custódio Castro’s squad, having played 13 matches and scored one goal. His contract runs until the summer of 2028.
