"According to a report from Spanish outlet Fichajes, Man Utd have an interest in Francisco Trincao, who has certainly been in hugely impressive form in recent times. The Portugal international has a superb record of 39 goals and 34 assists in 161 appearances for Sporting, many of which will have come under Amorim's management. Of course, there's no guarantee that Trincao could repeat his fine form at United, but his numbers are impressive, and he's someone Amorim knows how to get the best out of."
"Mbeumo looked like a top performer at Brentford, while Cunha also impressed a great deal at Wolves, so there's always the risk that Trincao or someone else would similarly go backwards at Old Trafford. Unfortunately for United, that's been the theme with so many of their signings in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era. Many recent Man United signings have flopped Antony, Jadon Sancho, Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee are some other recent examples of players who shone before joining."
Manchester United are seeking additional attacking signings despite signing Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha this summer. The team have not started the season well after revamping their front three. Manager Ruben Amorim is reportedly interested in 25-year-old Francisco Trincao, who recorded 39 goals and 34 assists in 161 appearances for Sporting while playing under Amorim. Trincao could offer a quicker settling-in period given his familiarity with the manager, but there is no guarantee he will reproduce his Sporting form at Old Trafford. United may pursue him in January or wait until the summer to reassess Mbeumo and Cunha.
