Latest Fantasy Rumors
Wanted by several teams
Some of the best clubs in the Premier League and Europe are keeping close tabs on Inacio, according to Gazzeta dello Sport.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old is reportedly on top of several shortlists for the summer, with teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea all keen on his potential availability. The defender is likely to start for Portugal in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, so any move would have to happen after that. He has a €60 million release clause in his contract, so Sporting are ready to let him leave in the summer.
