# Chelsea eye highly coveted starlet Trincao

Chelsea are interested in Manchester United and Manchester City target Francisco Trincão, according to reports.

The 18-year old forward plays for Braga B, the reserve team of Portuguese outfit Sporting Braga, and has attracted the attention of a number of elite clubs across the continent.

As well as United and City, Juventus are also interested in the Portugal youth international, with a [Tribal Football](https://www.tribalfootball.com/articles/juventus-launching-bid-for-atletico-madrid-target-francisco-trincao-4252177) report citing Corriere Di Torino claiming that Atlético Madrid are also interested.

[Calciomercato](https://www.calciomercato.com/news/stella-trincao-la-juve-sfida-tre-club-95494) credit Chelsea’s interest, with the 18-year likely to cause a bidding war if interested parties decide to firm up their interest.

Trincão’s contract with Braga expires in 2023, however Tribal Football’s report claims that the Portuguese club have a €30million release clause in the starlet’s contract.
