Player unleashed by Ruben Amorim could still earn Sporting a tidy sum | OneFootball

Flávio Nazinho continues to enhance his reputation in European football and could be close to making an important step forward in his career after three seasons at Cercle Brugge. The left-back, who came through Sporting’s academy, is attracting strong interest in the market and could move to one of Europe’s top leagues as early as this summer.

The German side is looking to strengthen its squad with another Portuguese player, pairing Nazinho with Tiago Tomás, but Monaco remain in a stronger position in the negotiations. Even so, Stuttgart have an important selling point: a place in next season’s Champions League.

The season produced by the former Sporting full-back, who was handed his debut by Ruben Amorim, has helped increase international interest. In 2025/26, Flávio Nazinho recorded three goals and eight assists in 32 matches for Cercle Brugge, establishing himself as one of the standout players in the Belgian team.

The player is currently valued at around €5 million, but the transfer fee could rise due to the existing competition. In Alvalade, the process is being followed closely, since Sporting first let him leave on loan and then sold him permanently for one million euros.
