Sporting turned down Sunderland in the race for Catamo

Dia de Jogo — jornal desportivo31 August 2026 at 19:37

Sunderland demonstrated renewed interest in Geny Catamo, the Mozambican winger from Sporting, presenting a new proposal for the player. However, Sporting categorically refused this approach from the English club.

The proposal presented by Sunderland is said to have been around 40 million euros, a significant amount that was not enough to convince the Lions' management to release the player.

Geny Catamo has been one of the revelations at Sporting, which explains the high interest he has sparked from international clubs, even with the Portuguese club's resistance to negotiating the winger.

This is not the first time Sunderland has tried to secure the player's services, demonstrating persistence in the race for Catamo, although so far without success with the green and whites.
