Premier League
Chelsea has shown renewed interest in securing the services of Francisco Trincão, the winger who is astonishing the Primeira Liga with stellar numbers.
After a somewhat lackluster stint at FC Barcelona, the 26-year-old attacker has found in Estadio José Alvalade the perfect environment to complete his footballing maturity.
His explosion of talent has not only helped his club vie for the Portuguese runner-up position but has also put him back on the Premier League's radar.
However, the operation won't be easy as Liverpool is also eyeing the player, and the financial conditions set by Lisbon are extremely demanding.
Chelsea understands that the sports planning for the upcoming season requires players with proven international experience and a fierce competitive hunger to regain lost prestige.
Stamford Bridge's club is monitoring every move in the Portuguese capital, aware that British competition could inflate a negotiation that is expected to be lengthy and complex.
The Chelsea and the Millionaire Clause for Francisco Trincão
Sporting CP's board has been firm in valuing their star after investing close to 18 million euros in his definitive transfer.
Chelsea is well aware that Lisbon's officials are not willing to make any concessions and insist on the player's current 60 million euros clause.
The growth of the Portuguese is undeniable, having already earned 17 caps for the national team and scored three goals.
For Chelsea, adding a player who masters dribbling and possesses a privileged vision of the game would mean an immediate quality leap in their rotation.
