Arsenal have entered the race to sign Genya Catamo, a right-back who is on the rise at Sporting and played a crucial role in scoring in the 2-0 win over Boavista at Bessa.
Despite the fact that Zhenya Katamo is left-handed, he strengthens his position in the Leonin team as a full-back and right winger. And the 22-year-old Mozambican lives in Alvalade like in a fairy tale. After unsuccessful periods of rent from V. Guimaraes and Maritimo (he was relegated), he earned a place in the team after a very positive pre-season. He has already appeared in 13 games, scoring two goals and one assist.
His ability to cover the entire right flank, combined with a technique that makes him very strong in one-on-one situations, and his shooting ability have attracted the attention of several English clubs. According to the Football Transfers website, in addition to the Gunners, Aston Villa and Tottenham are closely monitoring the player. According to the contract until 2025, Catamo has a clause of 60 million euros. Sporting only owns 25% of the passes, with Amora negotiating the remaining 75%.
