Zeno Debast’s future at Sporting could hinge on… Marc Guéhi | OneFootball

If Liverpool fails to sign Marc Guéhi in the next transfer window, it is very likely that they will go after Zeno Debast. The Belgian international from Sporting appeals to Arne Slot and is on the list of possible targets for the Premier League club.

This information was reported by the Belgian portal ‘VoetbalNieuws’ and later confirmed by the newspaper Record, stating that the ‘number 6’ from Alvalade is one of four alternatives if Liverpool fails to secure the aforementioned transfer, as has already happened in the summer window. Besides Debast, Willian Pacho, Sven Botman, and... Ousmane Diomande are also on the English club’s list.

With this news, Anderlecht, from whom Sporting signed Debast in 2024 for 15.5 million euros, remains very alert—the Belgians also secured a 15% sell-on clause, which could result in some profit in the event of a player sale.

At this point, due to bonuses, Debast has already cost Sporting over 18 million euros: 15.5M fixed and 2M in individual and collective objectives, which means the Lions will not let go of the player easily. The Belgian international is under contract at Alvalade until 2029, with a release clause of 80M.

Currently, the Alvalade club footballer is focused on his national team, as he has been called up for Belgium’s matches against North Macedonia, Dimitar Mitrovski’s team—the former B team striker for Sporting—(on the 10th), in Ghent, and Wales (13th), in Cardiff.

At the start of this season, Zeno Debast—valued at 30 million euros—has already played 10 official matches wearing the Sporting shirt. The Lions’ ‘number 6’ has, so far, played 638 minutes, but is yet to score or assist in his personal tally.
