Juve, West Ham and Arsenal alerted as €40m star wants summer exit
The Premier League and the Serie A giants are not the only clubs to have been linked with a move for the 25-year-old who was also chased by West Ham in the summer.
The Portuguese club, however, refused to sell their star in the summer as they were only open to sell him for his € 40 million release clause.
According to Record, however, the player is not determined to join a bigger club at the end of the season and is going to push to leave Sporting for a lower transfer fee in the summer.
Sporting still don’t want to sell the player for a fee lower than € 40 million, a fee that, however, seems a pretty good value for money given that the Portuguese ace, a 2016 European Cup winner, is regarded as one of the most exciting midfielders in Europe at the moment.
