Sebastian Coates had an emotional time in the late afternoon and early evening on Saturday as he was honored at the farewell ceremony of the Sporting fans at the José Alvalade stadium, in a moment that still remains in the memory of the 33-year-old central defender. Through social media, “El Patrón” left a new message of thanks to the Lions' world on Sunday. “Sportsmen, thank you for making me feel like one of you!! Yesterday it was very moving to feel your affection!! I wish you the best and that we will be happy again in May!! Thank you all!! See you soon “, highlighted the Uruguayan international, who will leave for Nacional in Montevideo, but promised to follow the path of the Alvalade club closely.
