Sporting CP is facing difficulties in completing the transfers of players Pote and Daniel Bragança to clubs in Saudi Arabia in the final stretch of the transfer window. Negotiations are stalled due to two main factors that are complicating the deals.
The first problem is related to the exhaustion of foreign slots at Saudi clubs. Teams in the Arab league have strict limits on non-national players, and the interested clubs have already reached their maximum allowed quota, making it impossible to hire more foreigners.
The second obstacle is related to the players' medical history. The medical conditions of Pote and Daniel Bragança have raised concerns on the part of the Saudi clubs, which are showing hesitation in moving forward with signings that could represent injury risks or future physical problems.
This situation leaves Sporting in a delicate position at the final stretch of the market, a club that intended to free up salary bill space and generate revenue from the sale of these two players, but which sees its plans compromised by external factors to which it cannot respond.
