Sporting Clube de Portugal have completed the loan signing of Pablo Sarabia for the 2021/22 season, joining from Paris Saint-Germain. The 29-year-old Spanish forward is the latest addition to the squad for the reigning Liga Portugal champions.

Born in Madrid, Sarabia came up through the youth system at Real Madrid, during which time he won the Under-19s (2011) and Under-21s (2013) European Championships with Spain.

Although he would make his senior debut with Real Madrid, he established himself in Spain's LaLiga during five seasons with Getafe CF, playing 146 games, scoring 13 goals and providing 10 assists.

The forward would then move to Sevilla FC. In Andalusia, Sarabia scored 43 goals and produced 38 assists in 151 matches played over three seasons, with a highlight being the 23 goals and 14 assists he produced in 2018/2019.

Signing for PSG, despite strong competition up front, he appeared in 79 games, racking up 22 goals and 12 assists.

A regular for Spain's senior national team (9 games and 3 goals) under coach Luis Enrique, he played at Euro 2020, scoring two goals and providing an assist in the competition.

Sarabia's resumé includes a Ligue 1 title, two French Cups, a French League Cup and two Super Cups with PSG.

He is the third Spaniard in Rúben Amorim's squad, joining Antonio Adán and Pedro Porro.
