Sporting CP and Barcelona have reached an agreement for the transfer of Francisco Trincao. The winger will go to his country for ten million euros for half of his rights. The Catalan giants will keep the other 50%.

The end of the Trincao deal is nearing its end. After weeks of negotiations between Barcelona and Sporting CP, the two clubs appear to have reached an understanding.

'O Jogo' reported that the agreement between the two is a done deal. However, the Lisbon club will not pay the 20 million euros that Barcelona were asking for to let him leave on loan.

Finally, Sporting CP will pay ten million euros to get the Portuguese player. However, Barcelona will keep 50% of the player's rights, so they could gain in the future.

Furthermore, according to 'Relevo', Barcelona have kept an option to buy him back if the winger's performance is better than what has been seen so far.
