São Paulo announce new deal for defender Sabino | OneFootball

São Paulo announced this Saturday the contract renewal with defender Sabino. The 29-year-old player, whose contract was only valid until the end of this season, signed an extension until December 31, 2028.

Since Hernán Crespo’s return to São Paulo’s helm, Sabino has been one of the most utilized players by the coach. He has played in 37 out of 45 matches for Tricolor under the Argentine, starting in 32 of them.

“I’m very happy with the renewal, it’s an achievement for me within the club and I hope to give back in the best possible way on the field. I see it as a reward for resilience, for having waited for the right moment,” said Sabino.

Sabino at São Paulo

Sabino joined the club in March 2024, after three seasons at Sport. Since then, he has played 71 matches for Tricolor, scoring three goals and providing one assist.

This season, the defender has played eight times for São Paulo, with five appearances in the Campeonato Paulista and three in the Campeonato Brasileiro.

Confidence from Massis and Rui Costa

“This renewal is a satisfaction for us, a recognition of Sabino’s commitment to the institution. He has been an important part of the team and we believe he can still contribute a lot,” declared president Harry Massis Júnior.

“Sabino earned his place on the field. With serious work and great respect for the shirt he wears, he has become not only one of our players with the most minutes but also a behavioral reference within the group. We are very happy to renew his contract,” added executive Rui Costa.
