Sporting have plans for the future of two crown jewels for Rui Borges | OneFootball

Sporting has already established the two most important processes for the 2025/26 season: the contract renewals of Pedro Gonçalves and Francisco Trincão. Despite the closing of the transfer market, the lions continue to live a hectic period, and are now focusing on ensuring the stay of two of the most important players in Rui Borges' squad.

The two players have proven to be very important to the green and white Club, both for their performances on the field and their status among the fans. Therefore, Sporting wants to ensure quality for the future and renew contracts with two of the most valued players under the command of Rui Borges.

The situations regarding the pair of Portuguese wingers are distinct. Regarding Francisco Trincão, Sporting paid 11 million euros to Barcelona this summer, to ensure the percentage of the left winger's pass that was still held by the Catalan club. After that, they moved forward with the renewal, which is well underway.

According to the newspaper A Bola, with Trincão, the terms of the new contract are outlined and accepted by both parties. The new link is valid until 2030, and the player will see his termination clause rise from 60 to 80 million euros, due to his valuation in the last two seasons - the negotiations were even supposed to be closed in August, but the market delayed this scenario.

The renewal of Pote is more complicated, as our Journal has already advanced in Leonino Exclusive. Although it is not, at all, a possibility put aside, the talks are not as advanced as in the case of Francisco Trincão, so the green and white officials know that this process still requires several steps to reach a good outcome.
