PUBLICIDAD
Geny Catamo, right winger of 25 years old from Sporting Portugal, reappears in the transfer market of the Premier League with an eye on January. Sunderland leads the interest, although Newcastle, Brighton, Brentford, and Nottingham Forest are also linked to the Mozambique international, whose market value is set at 25 million euros.
Geny Catamo back in the Premier League spotlight
The name of Geny Catamo was already on the table during the last transfer window. Sunderland identified the player as one of their priorities to strengthen the right wing, and the English press indicated that position as one of the main needs of the squad.
Sunderland's interest does not come solely from recent rumors. The English club had already been monitoring the Sporting attacker during the summer and continues to consider his addition for the upcoming window, although there is no evidence of a closed agreement with either the player or the Portuguese club.
The competition may increase in January. According to information from TeamTalk, Newcastle, Brighton, Brentford, and Nottingham Forest are also following Catamo's situation, which could turn a potential operation into a dispute among several Premier League clubs. The interest does not imply, for now, that any of them have submitted a formal offer.
The sporting moment also explains the attention. Catamo has played in the six official matches played by Sporting this season, with 2 goals and 3 assists. In the Champions League, he scored against Galatasaray in the Portuguese team's 3-1 victory.
Sunderland remain interested in Sporting CP winger Geny Catamo, but they'll face intense competition in January 👀

Sporting Portugal sets conditions for Geny Catamo
Sporting Portugal has a defined negotiating position. Catamo extended his contract with the club until 2029 and has a release clause of 60 million euros, a much higher amount than the 25 million currently assigned by Transfermarkt.
The difference between both figures will be decisive if the Premier League confirms its interest. The market price does not equal the amount that Sporting demands to part ways with the player, so Sunderland and its competitors should consider an operation close to the conditions established by the club.
Catamo enters this scenario after a 2025/26 season with 8 goals and 4 assists with Sporting, numbers that helped solidify his position within the team. The Mozambique international also has experience in Portugal after loan spells at Vitória de Guimarães and Marítimo.
Sporting had already received inquiries from clubs in the main European leagues and maintained a 60 million euros clause after the renewal. This contractual protection explains that any move of Geny Catamo depends on a Premier League suitor willing to meet Alvalade's financial demands.
For now, Geny Catamo remains at Sporting Portugal, and his next market scenario will be in January. Sunderland is among the most interested clubs, but the presence of Newcastle, Brighton, Brentford, and Nottingham Forest could raise the competition for the Mozambique winger if any of them decide to turn the interest into a formal offer.
