Depends on where Matheus Reis will play. If he's gonna be a CB I'd love a defense or Reis/Coates/St. Juste with Inacio having his rotation. If Matheus Is gonna be a LB then we probably need another signing.
Some rumours in Portugal and England that Man United have appeared as front runners for Gonçalo Inacio. We've pointed to the 45M euro clause but the rumour says United is willing to put forward 40M + 5M objectives for him which could be enough to take him. If true, and considering Feddal is likely gone too. We're gonna need 2 additional CBs beyond St. Juste.
Official: Welcome Jeremiah St. Juste! The defender moves from Mainz to Sporting CP on a 4 year contract and a 45M euro release clause. Fee is between 9.5-10M euros. Big signing, with Sevilla and Monaco reportedly after him, great movement by the club. Lets hope he pans out. FYI on Transfermarkt his value is estimated at 16M euros: https://www.transfermarkt.pt/jeremiah-st-juste/profil/spieler/288253 Official, confirmed.

More on this deal, the club communicated that Jeremiah St. Juste cost 9.5 million euros, which may increase in value by more than 2.5 million euros depending on the realization of various objectives, not specified. Mainz has 10% of a future sale, if this is greater than €12 million.
Sporting confirm the departure of Feddal. A rock at the back last year in our title run, this year hampered by injuries. Really curious to see how Marsa and Edu Quaresma play otherwise we need another CB, Probably as a backup.
Official: Pedro Porro signs for us until 2025! He will have a 45M euro release clause and cost 8.5M euros.
