Francisco Trincão Transfer Update: Barcelona Push for Sale Amid Manchester United Interest.

Barcelona are actively working to sell Francisco Trincão this summer, with Manchest

er United reportedly among several clubs showing interest. The Portuguese winger, currently playing for Sporting Lisbon, enjoyed a strong season that has drawn attention from top European teams including Manchester City and Bayern Munich.

Trincão’s agent, Jorge Mendes, is exploring transfer options. Barcelona previously sold him to Sporting for €7.5 million but retained 50% of the profit from any future sale—giving the Catalan side a financial incentive to encourage a transfer now.

At 25, Trincão has rediscovered his form under Sporting manager Rúben Amorim, who is now in charge at Manchester United. Amorim is believed to be interested in reuniting with the player, especially as United look to strengthen their attack this summer.

United have already signed Matheus Cunha from Wolves and are in negotiations with Brentford over Bryan Mbeumo. However, Brentford recently rejected a £62.5 million bid. If that deal falls through, Trincão could become a serious alternative or an additional signing to bolster depth.

Sporting are hesitant to sell, instead focusing on extending Trincão’s contract with a new offer expected in July. Still, Mendes continues to engage other clubs to assess interest, while Barcelona remain keen to finalise a deal quickly to boost their finances.

The final decision will likely depend on whether Sporting are willing to negotiate and if United move from interest to a formal offer. Even if Trincão stays at Sporting, Barcelona would retain their financial stake in any future transfer, though their preference is a sale this summer.
