Souleymane Faye leaving Sporting CP?
According to A Bola, Souleymane Faye is on the market again, and the Sporting SAD administration will only accept a definitive sale. Sporting demands an amount close to the 6.5 million euros invested when acquiring him from Granada. Since arriving in January, Faye has faced a difficult adaptation. In this pre-season, Rui Borges tested him as a right-back, but the player did not convince. He was left out of the Troféu Cinco Violinos match against Monaco by technical choice. The priority is now to find a solution for the player.

The stay of Senegalese winger Souleymane Faye, 23, in the squad for the next season is not guaranteed and will depend on the technical evaluation until the end of the season. In this context, a loan is considered the most plausible solution. At Alvalade, it is understood that the forward, who joined the club in January 2026, needs to compete regularly to develop the potential that led to the investment. A loan, preferably in a demanding competitive context, could provide him with the opportunity to develop and return to Alvalade more prepared. Faye is under contract until 2030, has one cap for Senegal, and his current Transfermarkt market value is €4.00m.
