Lions hired on loan, valid for one season, from Everton, Joao Virginia, as A BOLA knows, has opened the doors of continuity in Sporting, albeit on different terms than those he was contracted to. While pleasing with Hulk, our newspaper has found that he is satisfied with what he found in Alvalade that despite living under Antonio Adan’s undisputed shadow, the Portugal Under-21 international goalkeeper will only continue if the terms of residence are renegotiated.
