Sporting CP attacking midfielder Francisco Trincão has emerged as a primary transfer target for two of Europe's most prominent football clubs. According to reports from the Portuguese publication Correio da Manhã, both England's Liverpool and Italy's AC Milan are actively monitoring the 26-year-old player's situation.
Reports suggest that AC Milan's newly appointed head coach, Rúben Amorim, is particularly interested in securing the midfielder, given their previous working relationship at Sporting CP. Both clubs are reportedly preparing to enter a competitive bidding process to bolster their respective squads.
The Portuguese international currently has a release clause in his contract valued at 60 million euros. However, industry analysts speculate that the Sporting CP management may be willing to negotiate a deal closer to 50 million euros. While neither Liverpool nor AC Milan has submitted a formal bid at this stage, negotiations are expected to intensify in the coming weeks as the transfer window approaches.
Francisco Trincão, known for his technical ability and versatility in the attacking third, has become a key figure for the Lisbon-based club, drawing significant attention from top-tier leagues across Europe.
