Leonardo Lelo, 22, Casa Pia’s left-back, is already the target of the lion in this month of January, while A BOLA has advanced in its Tuesday edition. Vasco Faísca, current coach of Farense, is of the opinion that Sporting are making an excellent choice, he who knows them well, having been his coach in 2018/2019 and 2019/2020, at Olhanense, before moving at SC Braga B.
«He is a very competent player in several things, I like him a lot, he has a great physical ability to make the whole corridor, he is fast, he is a very intelligent player, who understands the game well and makes good decisions. Emotionally he is incredible, he has revealed a great maturity from a very young age. He didn’t tremble. That’s why he takes penalties at Casa Pia, and it’s rare for a winger to take penalties, especially at such a young age. Emotionally he has an unusual ability,” he says. «I was still a junior and I was a regular with me at the CNS. We were in front and he was the owner and he stood out. I went to SC Braga B and I would have liked to take it, it was not possible. And he’s always played at Casa Pia, he’s been important in the promotion, he’s keeping the title, with the team doing a great championship. He has everything to be successful at the highest level », adds Vasco Faísca.
The coach classifies Lelo as a “modern, offensive, technically good winger”. “He is a very interesting player. If Sporting are really interested, he will be a great signing », he still defends.
