Geny Catamo (age 25), born on 26 January 2001, is a Mozambican right winger whose senior career has been built largely at Sporting CP. He wears the number 10 shirt and is valued at around £13m by Transfermarkt, which says enough about how firmly he has moved beyond the fringes.
His early development included loan spells away from Sporting, the sort of necessary football that tends to matter more than it is remembered. Those moves helped bridge the gap between promise and first-team use, but the main story has always pulled back towards Lisbon.
At Sporting CP, Catamo has made 89 league appearances across five seasons, scoring 16 league goals. His strongest league return came in 2025-26, when he scored six times in 29 appearances, a useful contribution from wide areas rather than empty decoration.
He has remained part of the Sporting first-team picture in 2026-27, with 17 appearances and three goals in all competitions, including 11 Champions League appearances and one goal. He has also continued to feature for Mozambique, with eight WC Qual. Africa appearances and three goals this season.
Catamo’s career is still developing, but its shape is clear enough: early loans, a sustained Sporting breakthrough, and continuing relevance for both club and country.
