According to the Italian media "Gazzetta dello Sport", English clubs have been paying attention to Juventus winger Conceição in recent weeks. This 23-year-old player is a Portuguese winger for Juventus. This season, he has handed over 4 goals and 4 assists in 38 games, but there are many people who appreciate him in the Premier League.
Even in Juve's recent game, Conceição has proven that his growth has transcended cold statistics. As the most outstanding player on the Bianconeri side at the San Siro Stadium, Conceição won the direct confrontation with another Portuguese international Leo: more shots (ratio 4 to 1), more passes (ratio 5 to 2), and more touches (ratio 54 to 37). Juventus' most threatening offensive opportunities all came from his feet: Thuram's goal that was ruled invalid, and the shot that Maignan blocked with his chest after he "dazed" Bart Sagi. However, more importantly, in that game against Milan, the Portuguese international player showed everyone that Spalletti's training guidance made him more stable on the court than in the past, and he has become more "core", and Liverpool and Manchester United have already noticed this situation.
Liverpool target Conceicao
The Red Army, in particular, is facing a situation where they are looking for a successor after Salah left the team at the end of the season. Conceicao seems to have seen the path that the Egyptian winger took when he transferred from Roma to Anfield in the past – an outstanding winger with superb skills and passion, who has the potential to grow into a ruthless striker. After all, the "assist" of this comparison comes precisely from Spalletti himself.
The Juventus coach had bluntly stated a few weeks ago that "he is a young guy and he still has a lot to learn. He must make sure that he can cut more inside to participate in the game, and he should not feel anxious because there is someone marking him behind him." But if he gets the ball on the wing and stares at you, it will be difficult for him to stop the opponent from defending. He needs to improve the quality of his shots, because Salah is at the top level, but Conceicao has such high intensity and ferocity in one-on-one situations that it is really difficult to defend.”
Juventus’ valuation of Conceicao
As of Manchester United, it is almost clear that they will return to the Champions League. They are looking to strengthen the ability of the wing attack line to improve the level of the lineup. According to sources, Juventus is paying attention to his situation in the transfer market: after spending 32 million euros to introduce Conceicao last summer (contract until 2030, annual salary of 3.8 million euros), the old woman will not sit at the negotiating table and accept an offer lower than his current book value (25.6 million euros) plus 20 to 25 million euros.
