Sporting seek edge by tapping into new market: English footballers

Sporting CP, the Portuguese football club, is tapping into a new market: English footballers. The club's women's team has been successful in developing young talents, including Olivia Smith, who was sold to Liverpool for a club record fee after being recruited from Canada's academy system. Sporting CP is now looking to expand its talent pool by recruiting English players. The club has brought in Georgia Eaton-Collins and Ria Bose, who are making waves in Portugal as part of Sporting's ambitious vision. While Sporting has not yet broken the domestic dominance of Benfica, the club's philosophy of developing young talents, exemplified by the success of Cristiano Ronaldo, is being applied to its women's team as well.
