Morten Hjulmand spotted in Atlético Madrid shirt in Porto, Sporting react | OneFootball

Morten Hjulmand was in the spotlight during an incident that occurred at the end of the warm-up before the match between Porto and Sporting. Next to the tunnel leading to the locker rooms at Estádio do Dragão, a Porto fan threw an Atlético Madrid shirt in the direction of the Danish midfielder as he was heading to the locker rooms.

The Sporting captain had been linked with a possible transfer to the Metropolitano during the January transfer window, a scenario that ultimately did not materialize, with the player remaining at Alvalade. The Danish international was even left out of the match squad for that reason.

It is worth remembering that Morten Hjulmand has a contract with Sporting until 2028 and a release clause set at 80 million euros. Even so, the Club President is said to be open to negotiating a possible departure for around 40 million euros in the next summer transfer window.

This season, wearing the Sporting shirt, Morten Hjulmand – valued at 50 million euros – has played in 30 matches: 18 in Liga Portugal Betclic, seven in the Champions League, three in the Portuguese Cup, one in the League Cup, and another in the Super Cup. In the 2,522 minutes he has been on the pitch, the Lions' captain has scored two goals and provided four assists.

The green and white team will be back in action next Sunday, February 15, against Famalicão. The match, part of the 22nd round of Liga Portugal Betclic, will be played at 8:30 pm at Alvalade, against the team led by Hugo Oliveira.
