The Ultras XXI group rejected the agreement proposed by the Sporting CP management. The lion's club refers that they do not seek "privileges" or "financial benefits."

What happened?

The Ultras XXI group proposed to pay for the Gameboxes at the same price as any member, to fully support the costs of their activities and their headquarters.

Why is this important for Sporting CP?

The Sporting CP management is trying to create conditions to reactivate the Curva Sul, with the presence of all the lion's clubs, and discussed a protocol with all the Organized Fan Groups. The Sporting CP team is currently in 2nd place in the Primeira Liga, with 82 points, 25 wins, 7 draws and 2 losses in 34 games, and a goal difference of +65.

What comes next?

The Ultras XXI group will continue in the Curva Norte next season, as announced, and the Sporting CP management will have to find another solution to reactivate the Curva Sul. The last match of Sporting CP was on May 24, 2026, when they lost 1-2 to Torreense. The recent form of Sporting CP is 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 5 games
