Macron put a legend inside the collar: Fernando Peyroteo, signature and portrait above the best scoring ratio in world football history, 1.6 goals per game. On the outside, wide hoops, NOS across the chest, a white polo collar and black cuffs closing the sleeves. It is the shirt of a season that began in ruins and ended with two trophies.

After the attack on the academy in May 2018, Sporting lost Rui Patrício, William Carvalho and Gelson Martins at once, removed Bruno de Carvalho and elected Frederico Varandas in September. Peseiro was gone by November, Marcel Keizer came in, and with Bruno Fernandes scoring 32 goals from midfield the team won the League Cup in Braga and the Portuguese Cup at the Jamor, both against Porto and both on penalties, on top of 3rd place in the league.

Here at Hoopster, this is the shirt that proved the club was more whole than the summer of 2018 suggested.
