Sporting CP “turned down a €10m offer from Roma” for Iuri Medeiros, confirmed the Portugal international’s agent.

The 23-year-old can play in any of the attacking roles, though is primarily a right-sided winger in the Mohamed Salah mould.

“I was asked by several clubs to present their proposals to Sporting,” agent Nelson Almeida told Portuguese paper O Jogo.

Sporting CP “turned down a €10m offer from Roma” for Iuri Medeiros, confirmed the Portugal international’s agent.

The 23-year-old can play in any of the attacking roles, though is primarily a right-sided winger in the Mohamed Salah mould.

“I was asked by several clubs to present their proposals to Sporting,” agent Nelson Almeida told Portuguese paper O Jogo.

“I presented the offers from Zenit St Petersburg (€12m), Roma (€10m), Celta Vigo (€10m) and Krasnodar (€10m). It was no good: Sporting rejected all of them.

“I was told they want to keep him in the squad and that another loan has no chance of happening.”

Medeiros spent last season on loan at Boavista and has never played outside of Portugal.

Previous loans were at Arouca and Moreirense.
