He dedicates his achievement to his father.
Francisco adores his father, Goncalo Trincao, and holds him in high regard. When he was signed by Barcelona, he donned the number 17 to commemorate his father. He likes the number since it is his father’s birth date. He claimed to be the European Under-19 champion with the number. Both of his parents have supported his football career from the start and have relocated to Barcelona to be closer to their son.
According to Francisco, he is not training alone; his parents are also training and transporting him to and from the training. His father transported him 100 kilometers back and forth from his village of Viana to Northern Portugal for his training at Porto many days a week.
