Fran Navarro, born on 3 February 1998 (age 28), is a Spanish striker with SC Braga. His current market value is around £5m, according to Transfermarkt.

Navarro’s sharpest league return came with Gil Vicente in 2022-2023, when he scored 17 goals in 34 appearances. That was the season which gave his record a bit of substance beyond the usual striker promise, and it helped carry him further up the Portuguese game.

He is now with Braga, where he has made two Liga Portugal appearances in 2026-2027 and scored once. It is a modest current snapshot, but a clear enough one: Navarro is an established centre-forward in Portugal, with his best work so far done at Gil Vicente.
