At the youthful age of 20, Portuguese star Zuofelix joined Sporting Madrid at a price of 126 million euros, a feat that made a splash. However, the years have gone by and his performance has not lived up to expectations. Last season, despite being loaned to Barcelona, he was not officially bought out. Rumor has it that the 24-year-old prodigy has grown tired of the hustle and bustle of the Bird's Nest and has decided to return to the Portuguese Superliga, and Binfiga Football Club has confirmed his relationship with Sporting Madrid.
After a conflict with UMass Experience coach Szémoné, Zuofelix was loaned out to Chelsea and Barcelona in his first two seasons. Although he expressed his loyalty to Barcelona, the transfer fee of up to 80 million euros deterred him. It is reported that Binfiga, to which Ofilius' mother belongs, is interested in taking over the deal, with the club's president, Regosta, revealing on Saturday (20), "We are watching closely and it would be inappropriate to discuss it publicly too soon, but Binfiga do need a good player."
According to the Portuguese media broke the news, Binfiga bought half of the ownership of Zuofelix for 30 million euros. It is not yet known whether Sporting Madrid will be willing to accept the terms of the deal. And while Premier League rivals Ashton Villa have also expressed an interest in him, it seems that his family have only heard footsteps on the stairs and have yet to take any real action.
