Exclusive: Centre-back set for Sporting, Varandas decides | OneFootball

Jeremiah St. Juste is expected to leave Sporting during this transfer window, although his destination has not yet been determined. Nevertheless, despite the farewell to the Dutch player – who did not reach an agreement with Osasuna – Frederico Varandas is not considering signing a new central defender, according to Leonino.

The management of the green and white club believes there is no need to strengthen a sector that already includes several players, namely Ousmane Diomande, Gonçalo Inácio, Zeno Debast, Eduardo Quaresma, and Matheus Reis, as well as João Muniz, who plays for the B team.

Therefore, the Lions are not in a hurry to sell the player, since they do not plan to find a replacement. Even if the player does not move to the Navarrese club, his days at Alvalade are numbered and he is looking for the ideal project to continue his career.

Although the player's departure is becoming increasingly certain, the player does not intend to leave the green and white club, as our newspaper has already reported, exclusively. Physical weaknesses have never allowed the player to fully establish himself in the starting eleven, in addition to earning a salary considered excessive given the few minutes played.

It is worth remembering that, since his arrival at Alvalade, the player has only made 90 appearances for the Lions, numbers that result in a low usage rate of 50.5%. Furthermore, the player was left out of Sporting's squad for the match against Nacional, in the third round of the Liga Portugal Betclic.
