At the same time, the “Rojiblancos” offered Hjulmand a five-year contract, showing him that they are counting on him as a key player in their long-term plans.
The 27-year-old midfielder has made a total of 141 appearances, scoring 10 goals and providing 12 assists while wearing the “Lions’” jersey; the club signed him in the summer of 2023 from Lecce.
In fact, Hjulmand also served as Sporting’s captain during their two consecutive Portuguese league titles in the 2023–24 and 2024–25 seasons.
Welcome, Hjulmand!
We’ve reached an agreement with Sporting CP for the transfer of the Danish international midfielder, who has signed with our club through 2031.
