Barcelona signs new forward as Messi insists on leaving

Barcelona on Wednesday officially unveiled their newest signing, Francisco Trincao.

“I can play in all of the forward positions.

“I will do what I can to fulfil the role the coach wants of me,” Trincao said in a video uploaded on the club’s social media platforms.
