Arsenal and Manchester United Vie for Sporting CP’s Francisco Trincao
Arsenal and Manchester United are set to battle it out for the signature of Sporting CP's promising winger, Francisco Trincao. The 24-year-old Portuguese star has caught the attention of top clubs in the Premier League, with both Arsenal and Manchester United keen to bolster their attacking options.
Reports suggest that Ruben Amorim, the current manager of Sporting CP, is eyeing a move to Manchester United and sees Trincao as a potential replacement for Marcus Rashford. However, Barcelona, where Trincao previously played, could also re-enter the fray, potentially re-signing him for a bargain fee. This adds another layer of complexity to the transfer saga.
Manchester United's interest in Trincao comes amidst rumors of a significant squad overhaul, with up to ten players, including Luke Shaw and Jadon Sancho, reportedly set to leave the club. Arsenal, on the other hand, are looking to strengthen their squad as they aim to compete at the highest level in the Premier League and beyond.
