Paulo Fonseca appointed Sporting CP head coach

Foot Mercato reports that Paulo Fonseca is set to become Sporting CP’s new head coach, although the Portuguese club had not yet officially confirmed the appointment at the time of publication. Olympique Lyonnais has officially announced Fonseca’s departure, clearing the way for his move to the Lisbon side. The report also refers to Fonseca’s first reaction after the news emerged. Sporting CP, known as the Leões, is therefore expected to be his next club, while the formal confirmation from the Portuguese team remains pending.
