Nestory Irankunda, a 20-year-old Australian international who plays for Watford in the English Championship, is being considered as a potential reinforcement for Sporting's attack. Sporting is seeking to strengthen the left side of its offensive sector because Pedro Gonçalves might leave. Irankunda is capable of playing on both wings, as a number 10, or as a second striker. In the previous season, he scored four goals and provided four assists in 42 games for Watford. He also participated in the World Cup for Australia and scored one goal against Turkey.
Sporting has referenced the player. The winger has 19 caps and 6 goals for Australia, holds a contract with Watford until 2030, and has a current market value of €8.00m, according to Transfermarkt. Other clubs, such as West Ham United and Fiorentina, have also been linked with him.
