Geny Catamo

Geny Catamo of Sporting CP was born in Maputo, Mozambique on 26 January 2001 (age 25).

Geny Catamo is a Mozambican right winger, born on 26 January 2001 (age 25), whose career has been shaped above all by Sporting CP. There were early loan spells to round off his development, but the serious body of work has come in Lisbon rather than on the margins.

Sporting have kept him involved over a long enough stretch for the numbers to carry some weight: 97 league appearances and 18 league goals across five seasons. His best league return came in 2025–26, when he scored six times in 29 appearances, a useful step for a player whose game is built around width, pace and end product rather than decorative possession.

He remains part of the first-team picture in 2026–27, wearing the number 10 shirt. Catamo has made 10 Liga Portugal appearances and scored twice, with three Champions League appearances and one goal included in his wider total of 17 Sporting appearances and five goals across competitions. He has also stayed prominent for Mozambique, with eight African World Cup qualifying appearances and three goals.

His market value is around £13m, according to Transfermarkt. At this stage, Catamo’s profile is plain enough: a Mozambique international, established at Sporting CP, and still relevant in their current side rather than merely attached to the squad list.

Catamo is 25, is Mozambican and plays as a right wing for Sporting CP; after moving from Amora to Sporting CP in July 2019 his career featured a series of domestic loans to Vitoria SC and Marítimo through 2023, a trajectory that reads as development via temporary moves rather than a single linear step up.

His transfer record begins with an undisclosed move from Amora to Sporting CP in July 2019 and is dominated by loan activity — a loan to Vitoria SC in January 2022, a return to Sporting CP in June 2022, a loan to Marítimo in August 2022 and a return to Sporting CP in June 2023 — a pattern of intra‑Portuguese moves rather than permanent departures; his market value is €15.00m.
