Sporting Portugal have reportedly made a move to secure the loan move of Trincao, who will return to Barcelona this summer after playing on loan at Wolves. The Portuguese side are hoping to overtake Benfica, another of the teams who want the player.

In his first season with Wolves, Trincao has made a total of 29 official appearances, scoring three goals and providing one assist. But once the season is over, he will return to Barcelona.

The 22-year-old Portuguese international is playing this season for the English club on loan from Barça. Despite the fact that the agreement includes a buyout clause of 30 million euros, Wolves coach Bruno Lage himself admitted that it would be very difficult for them to take on that figure for the signing of the Portuguese. 

For this reason, Sporting Portugal, who have been talking about signing the right winger on loan for the past month, have taken a step forward in their bid to sign the Barcelona player for next season. 

Record reports that the Portuguese club's coach, Ruben Amorim, has already contacted Trincao to express his interest and thus overtake Benfica, another of the Portuguese teams that are fighting for the signing of the player.
