Ctreated in 2022 to FC Barcelona, by 18 fixed ME, the extreme luso, 26 years old, moves to the Saudis of Al Ahli, in a business that can add 4.3 ME, through the fulfillment of objectives.
The 40 ME paid by Jeddah’s club equals the amount disbursed by Atlético de Madrid to rescue the Danish Hjulland, former lion captain, 10 years after João Mário also left, at the time to the Italians of Inter Milan, for the same amount, which added one million euros, for accomplished goals. Besides, the Portuguese medium is the only player traded in the last decade that still stands in the top 10.
These three players close the ranking of the top 10 sales of Sporting, still led by Swedish advanced Viktor Gyökeres, who, in July 2025, transferred to the English of Arsenal by 65.8 ME, plus 10.3 ME for goals.
In the second place of the list of figures reported by Sporting to the Securities Market Commission (CMVM) comes Bruno Fernandes, captain of Manchester United, who left the club Alvalade in 2020 and earned a fixed amount of 55 ME, plus 25 ME by objectives, of which 10 ME were quickly realized, totaling 65 ME.
Following the Uruguayan medium Manuel Ugarte, who was hired in 2023 by the now French champion and two-time European champion Paris Saint-Germain by 60 ME, he would sign for United a year later.
Geovany Quenda (50.8 ME), Pedro Porro (45 ME), Matheus Nunes (45 ME) and Nuno Mendes (45 ME) complete the batch of the ten highest outputs of the ‘lions’.
