Udinese have secured the signing of promising young defender Gonçalo Esteves from Sporting CP. The 20-year-old right-back has officially terminated his contract with the Portuguese club and is set to begin a new chapter in Serie A.
Esteves, who has been a part of Sporting CP’s setup, including stints with their B team, has decided to take his talents to Italy. This move comes after national media reports indicated that Esteves was on the verge of joining Udinese, a deal that has now been confirmed.
The young Portuguese defender has shown considerable potential during his time at Sporting CP, and his market value has been noted at €1.30 million. Esteves’ departure from Sporting marks a significant step in his career as he aims to make an impact in one of Europe’s top leagues.
