The FC Barcelona will live a market of signings very intense, but his more interesting bet could be tied. Francisco Trincao cost him 31 million euros in January of 2020, and his evolution in the Sporting of Knickers is more than promising. In addition to all what shows on the terrain of game to his scarce 20 years, those that know him well confirm that the Catalans played it to him rightly with a safe value.
Abel Ferreira directed to the forward in the group bracarense, and has explained how can triumph in the Camp Nou. The today technician of the PAOK of Thessaloniki had him to his orders in the second and the first team, and stands out his personal virtues: "Three characteristics define him, friendship, respect by the other and competitiveness. This last is the one who am convinced that it will do him triumph in the Barça because has the spirit of a champion. It is one of the most competitive youngsters that have directed never. It is very strong, but the strongest of Trincao is between his ears".
"The key is the brain. I say it to you, is a player to the that if you say him that it do ten, does twelve. And if you say him that it do fifteen, does twenty. It is a person very very polite, of a spectacular family, with very good values. If to this add him his talent, has it everything to triumph. I noticed a confidence in his impressive possibilities. This can see in the field, but is that, insist, afterwards see that the best that has is his mentality. It is well technically, it understands the game and is competitive", has analysed in an interview for the newspaper 'Sport'.

The one of Penafiel has insisted in that the price will not suppose a pressure added for his compatriot, and dares to predict that even it could go out cheap: "If it remains in the first team, will be a bargain. To him it gives him the same if it costs 30, 3.000 or 1.000. For him this does not matter. He only is slope of a thing, be better each day. It does not want to know at all more. I have trained to a lot of young boys, but Trincao for me is stronger. I go back to repeat and will not tire me to say it, what has between the two ears marks the difference with regard to the rest of players of his age".
The luso recalca that Trincao is a star in ciernes, and thinks that his options like culé will depend on the opportunities that receive. "Has goal, is young, is convinced of what does and, besides, when you train with the best, if you do the pre-season with them and give him this opportunity, gives him the same play with Messi, Ronaldo, Abel Ruiz... What wants to is the balloon. And the best that has is in his head", has aimed, illustrating his ambition with an anecdote. Once, the youngster asked him that it taught him videos to attack better to the rival defences.
"It will depend on the players that there is in his position. Only it depends on this. I refer me to the fact that, to his age, need opportunities. Especially in teams like the Barcelona. In a team in which they play Messi, Griezmann, Of Jong... Perhaps it need some time more to have the opportunity, but if it does the pre-season with the first team, goes to be a big surprise for all the world", has underlined.
Abel Ferreira defines to Trincao
After ensalzar his mental qualities, Ferreira has done a sportive X-ray of Trincao, to the one who does not see only like an extreme in a so demanding system like the one of the Barça. "In a 4-3-3 can play of Xavi or of Iniesta. In the centre of the field and between lines. It is a player that occupies very well these spaces. It did it with me in the team B of the Knickers and goes on doing it now", has argued, and has given more details.
"It is not a pure extreme, is not a player that play all the parties in the band. It likes him receive and drive for inside and is left-handed. The strong point of this player is to play between lines. You do not expect that it play hit to the band. It is a young player, but understands the game. It can play in a 4-4-2, in a 3-4-3 or in a 4-4-2. It understands what asks him the trainer, is very intelligent and, when they joint these characteristics and those that said you...", it has reflexionado, and has finalised speaking of some famous Portuguese that went through the City Condal.
Although some compare him with Neymar, for the míster, the one of Viana do Castelo seems more to Luís Figo, and there are qualities that differentiate him of Simao Sabrosa or Ricardo Quaresma: "Already I have said him that it does not have at all that see with them two. To level of characteristics is more seemed with Figo, that was not a very fast extreme, but was habilidoso and had good finta. It does not have the speed of Simao or of Quaresma".
"It is a more intelligent player and, when you speak me of the Barça, speak of intelligent players, to be conscious of the game, no to leave carry by him and play of random form. In the Barça have to know what are doing you, what are doing your mates and what are doing your rivals. Cruyff Said that the number 2 has to know what does the new 9. And Trincao this has it clear", has sentenced.
