Portuguese newspaper A Bola is reporting that Sporting Lisbon have made a move on AEL Limassol forward Orlando Sa.
Having stayed without Ricky van Wolfswinkel and with Diego Capel and Armindo Bruma also linked with summer exits, the Lions are in desperate need for attacking reinforcements.
Seeing as how they are operating on a very tight budget, Sporting Lisbon are forced to only consider free agents or cheap players.
One such footballer is AEL Limassol forward Orlando Sa, with the Lions officials already contacting the player’s representatives over a switch to Estadio Jose Alvalade.
The 25-year-old, one of the highest earners at the Cypriot club, has rejected a wage cut and is likely to be offered a mutual termination by club chiefs.
Sporting Lisbon are hoping the former Fulham forward will become a free agent in the coming days, which would give them a good chance to wrap up the deal.
Since joining AEL Limassol from Fulham last summer, Sa has scored 5 goals in 20 league appearances.
