Frederico Varandas keeps pushing the double champion to renew with Sporting | OneFootball

Sporting has maintained a consistent approach in managing contract renewals, ensuring the continuity of the most important players in the squad. This path was followed with Pedro Gonçalves, Gonçalo Inácio, João Simões and, more recently, Ousmane Diomande.

Meanwhile, the administration led by Frederico Varandas still has other processes to conclude, namely those of Daniel Bragança, Geny Catamo, Nuno Santos, Eduardo Quaresma, and also Francisco Trincão. Among these, the case of the winger is the most complex, as the talks to extend the contract have been ongoing for some time without reaching an agreement. The contract of the 'number 17' with the Lions is valid until 2027.

It is worth noting that the national press recently revealed that Francisco Trincão may not renew with Sporting before the summer, when the transfer market reopens. Thus, there might indeed be openness from both parties for a deal at that time, as he is one of the most attractive players in the green and white squad.

Something that the 'number 17' is aware of is that a potential departure will not happen this transfer window, especially since the Sporting management does not foresee any transfers out of Alvalade in January, only arrivals - as was the case with Luis Guilherme and Souleymane Faye. Only a loan is on the table, which is that of Alisson Santos.

Regarding the renewal, the winger had on the table an extension of three more years of contract - from 2027 to 2030 - in addition to becoming one of Sporting's team captains and having a release clause of 100 million euros. The disagreement over salary values is believed to have caused both parties to step back.

This season, wearing the Sporting jersey, Francisco Trincão - valued at 35 million euros - has played 29 matches. The Portuguese international forward has started in almost all official games. So far, he has recorded nine goals and nine assists.
