In front of the discretion of Trincao, Collado shows like option

After an economic effort of 31 million euros and six months like Barcelona footballer, the Portuguese of 21 years, Francisco Trincao, does not finish to show his best bersión in the rows of the FC Barcelona. In front of this situation, Álex Collado, the one who plays in the same position that the Portuguese, but in the filial culé, aspires to rise to the first team and can remove him the place to the same .

Trincao, the one who arrived with a promising profile the past summer, from the Sporting Braga, has had opportunities by part of Ronald Koeman, but has not attained to show his cost and, by the contrary, has had a performance quite underneath of the expected. In total, the Portuguese has contested 21 meetings, contributing only an assistance.

The last party that contested Trincao was the one of the semifinal of the Supercopa of Spain in front of the Real Sociedad, in which it went in like spare of Martin Bratihwaite to the minute 78. The role of the extreme luso was merely testimonial along his time on the terrain of game, since, again, did not attain to show any destello of the quality that in his moment carried it to be fichado by the Barcelona.

This situation has gone back a constant and has carried to the surroundings of the club to look alternatives for a possible replacement of Trincao, being the canterano Álex Collado the main candidate. With the same age, same position and same profile, but with a totally made training in the inferior categories of the club, the now player of the Barcelona B looms seriously the continuity of the ex Sporting Knickers and finds waiting for an opportunity by part of Ronald Koeman to finish of destronar to the luso.

Collado and de la Fuente watch to Trincao

Álex Collado is not the unico that is slope of the unimportant performance of Francisco Trincao, since the also canterano culé, Konrad de la Fuente, also could do to a side to the Portuguese, the one who has hindered his progression in the first team this season. Both players have had an active participation in the Barcelona subsidiary and, to receive more opportunities, could mean a serious threat for the Portuguese extreme.

Collado, the one who was lesionado at the beginning of the season, has contested six meetings to the orders of Francisco García Pepper this season, in which it has marked three so many, standing out the olympic goal that achieved the past week. By his part, de la Fuente has alternated the filial with the first team, participating in nine meetings (seven with the quarry and two with the greater), annotating a goal in the Second Division B. Of not changing drastically his performance, Trincao will see like these two footballers of the house win him the career and finish, possibly, throwing it of the club.
