Abdul Fatawu’s Leicester City transfer labelled ‘biggest waste’ as Sporting Lisbon exit rued

After making just one senior start for the Portuguese team, Abdul Fatawu departed Sporting to sign with Leicester City. Additionally, some Lisbon supporters believe their team did not give the 20-year-old a fair chance.

@eugenyuz: “Fatawu, good luck. Consistently exhibiting impeccable manners and avoiding controversy, even facing unfair treatment in the

“If he has a good season, I see him finishing in the top six of the Premier League,” said @HJUL42.

@FortesFT: “Very good bargain. There was nothing more that we would receive in the future. optimal choice for both sides.

@caesarion_: “Good player, in a championship and on a team that fits his traits perfectly.” It is also unappreciative when Sportinguistas believe he is undersold or have demanded more of him. beneficial to both sides.
