Another signing on the way! Ex-Inter midfielder set for Sporting | OneFootball

Sporting are set to secure Silas Andersen, a 21-year-old Danish midfielder who plays for Hacken, but who was at Inter Milan in 2022/23. The aim is to provide another option for midfield, following the arrivals of Rodrigo Zalazar and Pedro Lima.

On the Swedish club’s side, the young midfielder’s departure is seen as an increasingly likely scenario, although the board is trying to maximize the financial return from the transfer. The internal valuation points to a sale worth up to €10 million.

Erik Friberg, Hacken’s sporting director, made it clear in comments to Swedish newspaper Expressen that the player is “very good” and that his staying on after the World Cup is unrealistic: “It’s highly unlikely. People have already started talking about it a bit. Or rather, they’ve always talked about him. But it also seems like he is ready to take the next step in his career. It was perfect that he stayed here for about 18 months. We would have preferred to keep him here for another six months, or a year. But I think that could be difficult”, he stressed.

This season, Silas Andersen - valued at €2 million - has already played nine matches for Hacken: seven in the league and two in the cup. In total, the Danish midfielder has been on the pitch for 731 minutes, scoring one goal.
