There are Spanish clubs asking about Faye… but now? Now it’s ….

Miguel Melgar revealed that, after Sporting showed interest in Souleymane Faye, several clubs in the Spanish League inquired about the 22-year-old winger. However, the Granada sporting director added in an interview with Antena 1 that it’s no longer worthwhile.

I can’t say anything about the deal, I can’t comment, but I can say that it seems to me a very wise decision by Sporting. They saw something that in Spain they are only seeing now. I have several sporting directors from first division clubs asking about Faye, but now? Now it’s too late, he said.

I think Sporting is the ideal club for him. He’ll show what a great player he is. He’s a player who will really like Portugal; I played for Famalicão and I know Portuguese football. He’s a very young player with excellent qualities. He’s very fast, can play down both flanks, has a knack for scoring, works very hard, is intense and courageous.

Miguel Malgar says he is certain that Faye will do well in Portugal, highlighting that “he is a very professional guy and will have a very high level in Portuguese football, as he would have in the first division of Spain.
