Juventus has already secured the transfer of Jonathan David. Additionally, the Turin club’s management is pursuing the signing of Jadon Sancho from Manchester United. Meanwhile, Sport Mediaset reported that the Old Lady is still working to ensure Francisco Conceicao remains part of their squad.

Last season, the Portuguese winger played for Juventus on a loan deal that included an option to make the move permanent. The Turin-based club paid €10 million for the loan arrangement. Should they decide to acquire the player permanently, an additional payment of €30 million is required. However, this valuation has created tension between the two parties.

Reports suggest that Juventus is eager to secure Conceicao on a permanent basis but hopes to renegotiate the terms of the deal. The Italian squad is seeking a reduction in FC Porto’s asking price to €20 million, with the potential to add performance-based bonuses. Furthermore, Juventus aims to negotiate a payment structure involving multiple installments to ease financial pressure.

Francisco Conceicao is the son of Sergio Conceicao, who coached AC Milan last season. The 22-year-old winger is under contract with FC Porto until the end of June 2029. Having represented Portugal 11 times at the international level, he made a notable impact during the FIFA Club World Cup, scoring twice in three appearances. Known for his creative and unconventional style of play, Conceicao continues to captivate football fans.
