LCCFox96 Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 1 minute ago, Babylon said: Thing is here, you have to ask yourself if the club or the agent weren't actively touting him about, why would clubs try to sign a player who has only just signed for them. Stinks of making a quick buck from Barca, if true of course. That was my first thought - reminds me of the Yerry Mina transfer to Barcelona and then Everton. That said Trincao would be exciting and according to reports has an extremely high ceiling, certainly higher than Mina did for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricey Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 I'm assuming there is some truth to this. We need a left footed right winger, he fits the profile of player we like to sign and the structure of the deal (loan and then fee next year) matches up with what Percy wrote about a few weeks a go if we missed out on the Champions League. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loan signing for a minimal fee then we'll be flush with cash once he fires us to the CL. Must be a Ric Flair recommendation. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJD_LCFC Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 12 minutes ago, EnderbyFox said: Thanks for posting. Looks a very talented player. Left footed and plays on the right. Could be just what we need. Link up with Ricardo could do well. Personally would go for Brooks if we had the choice, just my opinion but Trincao looks very good. If this is the type of player we are after then maybe I have been very wrong with thoughts and ability for Rodgers and Congerton in the transfer market.

Reported his buy out clause is around £500 million euros Most Spanish youngsters have ridiculous release clauses. It's compulsory in their contracts I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post StriderHiryu Posted 4 August 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 4 August 2020 We were linked with him in January, but he went to Barcelona instead. There is precedent for him to be sold to us, Barcelona often use their clout to turnover some players very quickly to generate additional revenue, look at some of Everton's players - Yerry Mina, Lucas Digne and Andre Gomes. Their wage bill is astronomical so trying to offload a player to generate revenue quickly is more than possible. Even if we only got him on loan, I think he'd be a fantastic signing. From the few clips and match highlights I've seen he's something else. To sign for Barcelona at that age regardless of whether you make it or not means you have to have technical quality at the very top of the game, and this guy has it. I think he'd be a smash hit here, especially with a fellow Portuguese compatriot in Ricardo behind him! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdb Posted 4 August 2020 Share Posted 4 August 2020 Do it do it do it!! Funny how we've been waiting for a good rumour with substance and now we have it I wish it was kept secret until done. Bit like praying for a 1-0 lead but then getting it and remembering Rodgers hasn't had his tinker yet. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's listed as a tier 1 source by the reddevils subreddit, not sure if thats for MU specific news or if his reliability is the same level for all clubs, but it bodes very well. Interesting to see the offer we've (supposedly) put in. Loan with obligation to buy indicates we're looking to spend a fair bit more this window and want to spread out our spending as much as possible. Especially as its a '€50M total' which reads to me as €Xm+add-ons (possibly dependent on CL qualification, etc). Could be a very, very exciting transfer.
