Fran Navarro

Fran Navarro is a striker for SC Braga and, in the 2026–27 season, has one Liga Portugal appearance (one start) with one goal; he also has 13 Europa League appearances with three goals and four Conference League qualifying appearances with one goal – this distribution suggests Braga deploys him regularly in continental matches and as a scoring option when selected in the league, with the early domestic sample still limited.

Navarro is a 28-year-old Spanish striker with a €6.00m market value whose career includes productive seasons of 17 goals in 2022–23 and 16 goals in 2021–22; those returns led to a €6,000,000 move from Gil Vicente to Porto in July 2023, followed by loan spells in 2024 and early 2025 before a permanent transfer to SC Braga in July 2025 – the trajectory maps a clear scoring peak that earned a big-club transfer and then a sequence of loans prior to re-establishing at Braga.

Porto paid €6,000,000 to sign Navarro from Gil Vicente on 2023-07-05; he moved on loan to Olympiacos in January 2024 and returned in July 2024, then spent the start of 2025 on loan at SC Braga before Braga paid €2,300,000 to make the deal permanent on 2025-07-01 – the pattern is a significant purchase followed by loans and a subsequent permanent sale for a smaller fee.
