Juventus are determined to secure two attacking wingers for Thiago Motta before the August 31 transfer deadline. While Nico Gonzalez appears close to joining the Bianconeri, with an agreement with Fiorentina potentially finalized within days, the club has also set its sights on Francisco Conceicao from Porto.
Portuguese newspaper Record (via IlBianconero) report that the son of former Porto coach Sergio Conceicao has been identified as the player to add depth to Juventus’ wide attacking options. However, negotiations with Porto have proven challenging.
Juventus had already submitted an initial official proposal to Porto: a loan with an option to buy for a total of €28 million. This offer was rejected by the Portuguese club.
According to Record, Juventus is now prepared to make an improved bid. The new offer reportedly consists of an €8 million loan fee, plus 2 million in bonuses, with an obligation to buy set at 20 million euros.
The Turin club is hopeful that this enhanced proposal will be enough to secure Conceicao’s services and bring the negotiations to a successful conclusion. As the transfer window enters its final stages, Juventus is pushing hard to reinforce its squad for the upcoming season.
