Rumour is swap with Trincao.
Adama total transfer fees are almost equal to Trincao so it is ok in terms of market values. Profile wise we have Collado who has a similar style with arguably better mentality.
But to be honest, Trincao can develop into a very good player if we can find a spot for him next season to develop more or a loan. Villarreal type of club (although they done nothing for Kubo).
Yeah I wouldn't want to get rid of Trincao without a buyback option, but he isn't really needed right now and he could use playing time.
The squad doesn't need both Adama and Dembele, and if there is another deal with Dembele leaving, it could make sense.
Collado and Adama instead of Trincao and Dembele won't be too much difference, and if it is economically good as well then why not?
At the moment, these players have Messi, Griezmann, Fati, Depay and Aguero in front of them in the pecking order for 2/3 spots, and Coutinho and Braithwaite to deal with as well.
