Marcus Edwards is currently training separately from the group due to a 'disconnected' attitude in conversation with the coach. Sporting's SAD wants to sell him immediately, but the options that have emerged, including Besiktas and an Italian club, are all for a loan.

Marcus Edwards is reportedly on the verge of leaving Sporting due to disciplinary issues, such as arriving late for a team gathering and displaying a lack of commitment. Sporting's management plans to sell him in the winter market, although the offers they have received so far are only for a loan until the end of the season with an option to buy. It is reported that Besiktas, a club from Turkey, is interested in this type of arrangement. Sporting is said to be asking for a transfer fee between 10 and 15 million euros, being aware that 35% of the fee must be paid to Tottenham, where Edwards was developed.
