Geny Catamo set for Sporting exit? Winger’s future in doubt | OneFootball

With José Mourinho out of Fenerbahçe, Turkish interest in Geny Catamo could once again complicate life for Sporting

José Mourinho was, this Friday, dismissed from the technical command of Fenerbahçe. Now, with this change, the Turkish emblem may refocus its attention on Geny Catamo. The officials of Sporting are willing to negotiate, but only for the right price, which would be an amount around 20/25 million euros.

“We say goodbye to José Mourinho, who was the coach of our professional football team A since the 2024-2025 season. We thank him for his efforts for our team and wish him success in his future career,” wrote the Istanbul emblem, through a statement on its official social network ‘X’ account.

The dismissal of José Mourinho from Fenerbahçe may influence Sporting's market, since the Turks were one of the emblems eyeing the purchase of Geny Catamo, along with Galatasaray and Aston Villa. However, the Portuguese coach denied any interest in the Mozambican winger.

“I think that Geny Catamo is not on Fenerbahçe's list. Honestly, I think there is no list. I think no player will come in now. It's nonsense. I think there's nothing with Geny,” said José Mourinho, in his last press conference, which was in preview of the match with Benfica.

This season, with Sporting's jersey, Geny Catamo - valued at 15 million euros - has already played four matches, always as a starter. In the 278 minutes he was on the field, the left-footed player has not yet managed to score any goal or assist for Rui Borges' team.
