Sporting Clube de Portugal have officially confirmed the signing of Colombian striker Luis Suárez, who joins the Lions on a long-term contract running through to 2030. The 27-year-old forward arrives after a sensational season with UD Almería in the Spanish Segunda División, where he scored 31 goals and provided eight assists in 2024/25, demonstrating remarkable consistency and finishing prowess.
In his first statements after signing, Suárez described joining Sporting CP as “the biggest challenge” of his career. “I’ve reached the prime of my career. I’m eager to repay the trust of the directors and the incredible support from the fans,” he said. The Colombian striker highlighted the stature of Sporting CP, not only in Portugal but also on the European and global stage, noting that the club’s recent growth makes it an attractive destination for both players and supporters worldwide.
Suárez expressed his clear objectives: to score goals, provide assists, win games, and ultimately secure trophies. “That’s what I’ve been missing in my career: winning important trophies. I believe that at Sporting CP we can achieve a lot, and for me, that would be the most beautiful thing that could happen,” he added. He also cited previous Colombian players at Sporting, such as Téo Gutiérrez and Fredy Montero, as inspirations, expressing his desire to leave a lasting mark in the club’s history.
Describing himself as a “strong, agile striker, always with his eye on goal, contributing both in attack and defense,” Suárez also sees this move as an opportunity to represent the Colombian national team again in the future. Sporting fans can expect a player eager to integrate into the squad, bring energy, and enhance the club’s competitive edge domestically and in Europe.
