Oguchi Onyewu Joins Sporting Clube de Portugal

Remember last year when Onyewu was going to give up his final year of his contract with A.C Milan and play for free cause he was hurt the previous season? I didn’t think that was going to be needed and luckily for Onyewu he is right since Sporting Clube de Portugal have signed the American international.

Thanks to the power of twitter Onyewu wrote “So thrilled and excited to have just signed to Sporting Lisbon (SCP)! Great things to come. Thank you all for ur support and prayers. Bless!” I’m thrilled to have him playing in Portugal. Hopefully his knee problems are behind him because he’ll now be playing for a club who will have plans for him unlike his stay in Milan.

Hopefully I’ll get to see him when Sporting takes on Juve in Toronto this summer.
