Hidemasa Morita, the 31-year-old midfielder, was among the players who announced their departure from Alvalade even before the season concluded. His contract with the green and whites ended after an impressive stint of 166 games, 11 goals, and 17 assists. Currently on holiday, the midfielder is a free agent, weighing his options for the next chapter of his career.
Playing in England, specifically the Premier League, has always been the Japanese international's primary ambition. However, in recent days, negotiations with Leeds – a club that has long tracked the former Sporting player – have stalled. This impasse has reignited interest from other clubs in the Japanese star. Notably, three French clubs are closely monitoring the situation: Marseille, Monaco, and Lyon, managed by Portuguese coach Paulo Fonseca, are reportedly considering a move for Morita should the Leeds negotiations fail to progress in the coming days.
