Micael Sequeira will indeed leave the managerial position of the Sporting women's football team at the end of the current 2026/27 sports season. The Alvalade Club is already in the market looking for a replacement, Leonino has learned.
The green and white officials believe there are conditions for the team to achieve and present better results, something that has not happened since Mariana Cabral's departure in October 2024. The Alvalade Club intends to secure a new coach as soon as possible. The idea is to avoid late dramas and to give the future management team enough time to implement their model.
While at Sporting, Micael Sequeira has, so far, managed 54 matches. In total, the coach, who arrived at Alvalade through Ruben Amorim—whom he worked with at Braga—achieved 34 victories, recorded 12 draws, and suffered eight defeats.
The 52-year-old coach already knows he will not continue in the position. The idea is not to prolong uncertainties or fuel unnecessary speculation, but rather to structure a transition process that will allow the next season to be prepared with clarity and ambition.
The green and white emblem—which won the last match—now turns its attention to the 14th round of the Liga BPI. The next match for the Alvalade Club is scheduled for Sunday, March 22, at 3:00 p.m., against Torreense, at the Estádio Nacional do Jamor, in Oeiras.
