Sporting CP has initiated negotiations to sign 20-year-old Australian winger Nestory Irankunda from Watford, with a €15 million base offer potentially rising to €20 million.

Irankunda, a versatile attacker who played at the 2026 World Cup, also interests Bayer Leverkusen, Everton, and others. Sporting aims to finalize the deal quickly to avoid an auction.
