Arsenal, Juventus 'battling for Braga teen Francisco Trincao'

Francisco Trincao, who won the Golden Boot at last year's European Under-19s Championship, is reportedly on the radar of both Arsenal and Juventus.

Braga youngster Francisco Trincao is at the centre of a transfer tug of war between Arsenal and Juventus, according to a report.

The teenage striker is believed to have been watched up close by scouts from both clubs in recent weeks.

Portugal age-grade international Trincao has yet to break into Braga's first team but has caught the eye for their reserves side, while also winning the Golden Boot at last summer's European Under-19s Championship.

Italian outlet Tuttomercatoweb indicates that Arsenal and Juve may now make a move for the 19-year-old, who is believed to be valued at a reasonable £13.5m.

Wolverhampton Wanderers - as well as Inter Milan - were linked with Trincao at the turn of the year, but the report suggests that Arsenal are confident of persuading the attacker to join them instead.
