Speaking with Sporting TV and the Sporting Journal, Slimani revealed that he has been missing the action: "I arrived back a bit later because I had some family issues to take care of and we in Ramadan as well. I feel great and I am looking forward to getting back to work. Of course I missed training, and the players and staff too. Our objective is to win the league and we want to do well in the Champions League as well. I have been paying attention to the new lads we brought in and it is down to the coach to pick the squad. I want to break my goals record and If I keep doing my job then it won't be difficult, with the help of the fans. We play for them and we win for them. They are always with us and that won't change."

Sporting CP Director of Communications on alleged interest in Bakic de Alvalad

In relation to the alleged signing of Bakic, The Sporting Clube de Portugal Director of Communications, Nuno Saraiva, affirms the following:

"When a path has not been clearly defined, lies are circulated regarding possible signings. Sporting CP has a clearly defined path. To that end, no player has been diverted by the club. That includes Bakic from Fiorentina, who was on loan to Belenenses last season, and Pedro Nuno, from Académica, who will likely be the target of similar suggestions. Sporting CP has not had any player diverted to any other club, because Sporting has already signed the players it wants with a calm and planning that is characterised by a club of our dimension. Newspapers should pay commission to journalists who trick people and to Sporting as many players are sold based on a lie that Sporting CP is interested."

Defender signs in at Alvalade on five-year deal

Sporting Clube de Portugal – Futebol, SAD has reached an agreement with the player David Sualehe for a contract valid until June 2021, with a buy-out clause of 45,000,000.00€.

Sporting SAD wishes the player the best of professional and personal success.
