Stars in Europe - Australia - Transfer - Irankunda moves to Sporting Lisbon

Nestory Irankunda

Watford striker Nestory Irankunda has left after just one season at Vicarage Road to move to Lisbon to join Portuguese giants Sporting on what the Hornets describe as "a permanent deal".

The 20-year-old Australian international arrived in July 2025 from Bayern Munich.

But, after four goals in 44 appearances for Watford, he will move on to Sporting, subject to international clearance.

Irankunda also netted five times for the Socceroos last season, including their opening goal of the World Cup in a 2:0 win over Turkey to become Australia's youngest-ever scorer in the competition.
