Apparently the Portuguese attacker will return to his native country
After a not so showy season in the wolverhamptonthe right end Francis Trincao I wouldn’t go back to FC Barcelona but would go to Portugal League bwin. It should be clarified that the player continues to be part of the culé club and that the English team will not exercise the purchase option that exists in its assignment. Coach Bruno Lage was not very convinced of his performances in the Premier League.
The team that is interested in taking the signing of the Portuguese attacker is the benfica. And it is that the possible exit of Rafael Silva has alerted Mr. Nélson Veríssimo, who has not hesitated to ask for a player on that side. The plus that also gives the signing of Trincao, is that it would be the only rightmost, since the technician only plays with right-handed interiors.
Barcelona is willing to grant the signing of Trincao to Benfica only if they give them a specific player
Francisco Trincao does not count for Wolverhampton and much less for FC Barcelona where he has already been and did not impress anyone. However, he still has a contract with the Barça entity until 2025, so they will seek to sell the striker in this summer market. Benfica has appeared out of nowhere and they are willing to buy the Portuguese.
The culé team has agreed to grant the signing, but under one condition, it will be through barter and Barca will choose the player. That of course will be full-back Alejandro Grimaldo, who has been in Mateu Alemany’s folder for several months now. The sports director has taken advantage of the opportunity and has not hesitated to take it.
Barter in sight, Barcelona will give Trincao waiting for Benfica to give Grimaldo
Although the Lisbon club has not given an official response, the exchange seems to see the light of day as Grimaldo only has one year left on his contract starting this summer. If the eagle box does not get the renewal, things will be much easier for both teams. Thus, the Valencian will return to Barcelona but this time he will play with the main team.
As for Trincao, he will also return to the Primeira Liga, but this time he will wear the Benfica jersey. Let us remember that the winger was trained in the subsidiaries of Sporting Braga and later played two seasons with the first team before signing with Barcelona. Because the prices of both players are somewhat similar, there will be no money involved.
