St. Juste’s situation worsens, Sporting defender’s exit off the table | OneFootball

Jeremiah St. Juste is likely no longer going to be a reinforcement for Osasuna. In the last few hours, talks between Sporting and the Spanish club have become complicated, so the transfer of the 28-year-old Dutch center-back to Pamplona is unlikely to happen in this transfer window.

According to information provided by Notícias ao Minuto, the pre-agreement established between the two parties of the deal suffered a setback in the final stage of talks due to tax issues. Faced with this information, the Spanish management even presented a new proposal, which did not meet the expectations of Frederico Varandas.

Even so, Jeremiah St. Juste may leave Sporting. The scenario turns out to be pessimistic for the Spaniards, as the Osasuna scouting team has returned to the market in search of a backup solution to Rui Borges' protégé.

Despite still being part of the plans of the Alvalade Club, and may not even leave in this transfer window, the 'number 3' of the lions is a confirmed absence in Rui Borges' call-up, to face Nacional da Madeira this Saturday, August 23, at 6pm.

In 2024/2025, St. Juste - valued at 6 million euros - played 28 games with the Sporting jersey: 14 in the Betclic Portugal League, six in the Champions League, five in the Portugal Cup and three in the League Cup. In total, the defender accumulated 1,385 minutes, without scoring or making any assists.
