Braga president talks up Barcelona-bound Francisco Trincao

Braga president Antonio Salvador has been talking up Francisco Trincao ahead of his summer move to Barcelona.

The 20-year-old is due to arrive at the Camp Nou on 1 July after Barca agreed to pay €31 million for the youngster in January.

Here’s what Salvador makes of the young forward in an online chat with fans:

“We already know we are going to lose one of our great players, one that I consider the best, one that will define a decade from now, which is Trincao. As you know, he has been sold to Barcelona.
