Sporting take up option to sign Trincao from Barcelona - report

Francisco Trincao will stay at Sporting after the Portuguese side reportedly took up the option in his contract to sign the winger permanently.

The Barcelona youngster moved on loan in the summer transfer window, in a slightly complicated transfer, that included a purchase option.

It’s now being widely reported that Sporting have already taken up the option even though there are still a few months left of the 2022-23 season.
