[Socrates 8949]

Key Juventus star risks not playing against Torino due to fitness worry

 

 

Francisco Conceição was a late withdrawal from Juventus’ lineup in their Super Cup semi-final clash against AC Milan, pulling up during the warmup just before kick-off. The Portuguese attacker’s unexpected injury forced a reshuffle in the starting XI, with Kenan Yildiz stepping in to replace him. ............

 

The timing of Conceição’s injury could not have been worse for Juventus. Early indications suggest the problem may be significant, leaving the club concerned about his availability for upcoming matches. While the team awaits the results of medical tests to determine the severity of the injury, the report adds that it is unlikely the winger will be fit for the next game.

 

Juventus face Torino in the first Turin derby of 2025 next weekend, a match that carries immense importance following their disappointing Super Cup exit. Fans are already disheartened by the team’s failure to progress, and they will demand a strong response against their city rivals. A win is not just desirable—it is essential to restore confidence and keep pace in the league.

 

Conceição has been one of Juventus’ standout players this season, contributing significantly with his creativity and attacking flair. However, the team cannot afford to rely too heavily on individual players. The derby against Torino will be a test of the squad’s depth and resilience, especially with Conceição’s availability in doubt. ............

Juventus breathe a sigh of relief: Medical tests confirm no lesions for Conceiçao

 

 

Francisco Conceiçao underwent medical examinations at JMedical, Juventus’ medical center, following concerns about his fitness. The Portuguese winger had been forced to withdraw from the starting lineup just before the Supercoppa Italiana semi-final against Milan in Riyadh due to discomfort in his right leg flexor.

 

The tests, which lasted just over half an hour, have confirmed the initial diagnosis: there are no lesions to the muscle. This news comes as a relief to the Bianconeri, who were anxious about the extent of Conceiçao’s injury after he left the field in tears before the match against his father Sergio’s Milan side.

 

Juventus will now monitor Conceiçao’s condition day by day to determine if he can recover in time for the upcoming Turin derby against Torino. ............

 

The 22-year-old winger’s availability is particularly significant given the team’s recent setback in the Supercoppa. ............

Conceiçao ‘immediately’ called Veiga to Juventus from Chelsea

 

 

Francisco Conceiçao reveals he ‘immediately’ called his compatriot Renato Veiga when he heard Juventus were interested: ‘I know his quality.’

 

Veiga has moved to Turin from Chelsea on loan until the end of the season. ............

 

“When I heard he could move to Juventus, I immediately called him to say he would join a big club that would help him develop,” said Conceiçao.

 

“I tried to convince him. I know his quality, and I think he can help us.”

 

Conceiçao will meet more familiar faces tomorrow as Benfica will visit the Bianconeri at the Allianz Stadium in the Champions League Round 8. ............

 

 

“We know Benfica’s strength, but we want to give a reply and show who we are.”

 

Juventus recently lost their first league game this season and will be looking to bounce back on Wednesday.

 

“It’s always difficult when you don’t win, but we are in a process. We are a young team, and we train every day to raise the bar,” said Conceiçao.

 

“It’s a competition that everyone dreams of playing.” ............

 

“I want to help the team win, and I work every day for this.”

 

Conceiçao is on loan at Juventus from Porto, but the Bianconeri have a ‘gentlemen’s agreement’ to make his move permanent for €30m at the end of the season.

 

“I don’t know what the future has in store, but I want to help the club 100%,” concluded Conceiçao.

 

“I am happy here, and I have settled in well. I focus on myself, and I hope to continue like this.”

Conceicao joins elusive Cristiano Ronaldo club, Kolo Muani equals 13-year record

 

 

On Sunday, Juventus earned themselves a famous victory over their arch-rivals Inter thanks to Francisco Conceicao’s solitary strike. ............

 

Conceicao has now joined an exclusive club, becoming only the third Portuguese player to score for Juventus in the Derby d’Italia. The 22-year-old has some elite company with Cristiano Ronaldo (two goals between 2019 and 2021) and Rui Gil Barros (one goal in 1989).

The Porto loanee has also found the back of the net on two league fixtures in a row at home for the first time in Europe’s Top 10 leagues. ............

 

Finally, Randal Kolo Muani continues to write history with his sensational start at the club. The Frenchman (who provided the assist for Conceicao) has made a direct goal contribution in each of his four Serie A contests for Juventus. The last player to do so was Kwadwo Asamoah after joining the club in the summer of 2012.

When will Juventus have Francisco Conceicao back in action?

 

 

Francisco Conceição is the latest Juventus player to suffer an injury, which forced him to miss their match against Verona. The Portugal international has been one of the club’s most exciting attacking talents and consistently delivers strong performances whenever he is selected. His pace, dribbling ability, and creativity make him a valuable asset to the team, and his absence is a setback for Juventus. ............

 

Fortunately for Juventus, Conceição does not appear to have suffered a serious injury. The attacker is expected to return within ten days. The club are monitoring his progress closely, but they believe he will be fully fit and available for selection after the next international break. While this means he will miss at least one more game, it is a relief that his injury is not long-term. ............

 

Although Juventus would prefer to have him back immediately, they remain cautious when it comes to player fitness. The club have always maintained a strict policy of not rushing injured players back onto the pitch, as doing so can often lead to further setbacks. This approach will not change for Conceição, and Juventus are determined to ensure he makes a full recovery before returning to action. It is a frustrating situation, but the club’s medical staff will take every precaution to avoid aggravating his injury. ............

Juventus change their plans for ‘inconsistent’ Conceicao

 

 

Juventus are no longer keen to sign Francisco Conceicao on a permanent basis as they were in recent months.

 

The Bianconeri acquired the services of the 22-year-old on a loan from Porto last summer, but the original agreement didn’t include an option to buy. ............

 

“The relationship with Conceicao and with the agent is excellent: we want him to stay with us, he will stay 100% in the future,” said Cristiano Giuntoli in December.

 

This statement was also echoed by the player’s representative Jorge Mendes who promised to keep the diminutive star at Juventus.

 

But Conceicao’s redemption is no longer a certainty as previously suggested. ............

 

The former Ajax man has been too ‘inconsistent’ for the club’s liking since the turn of the new year, and has been struggling to maintain his fitness while being struck with recurring physical problems.

 

Juventus would have to fork out 30 million euros to activate the player’s release clause. ............

Juventus unsure about signing 30m winger this summer

 

 

Francisco Conceição is expected to leave Juventus at the end of the season, with the winger no longer considered part of the club’s long-term plans following the departure of former manager Thiago Motta. The Portuguese youngster, who joined the Bianconeri on loan from FC Porto, was one of Motta’s preferred attacking options and had been in line for a permanent move to Turin. However, the landscape has changed considerably under new boss Igor Tudor. ............

 

Tudor’s arrival has, however, cast doubt over Conceição’s future. Since taking over managerial duties, the Croatian tactician has implemented a new system that relies less on traditional wingers and more on structured positional play and defensive balance. As a result, Conceição has found opportunities limited under the new regime, with his playing style seemingly at odds with Tudor’s tactical preferences. ............

 

 Juventus are now preparing to send Conceição back to Porto once his loan expires in the summer. The report states that the club are unwilling to invest in a player who does not feature in Tudor’s vision for the team moving forward, particularly as they look to reshape the squad to better suit the manager’s approach.

 

The decision underlines Juventus’ commitment to backing Tudor as they prepare for the 2025/26 campaign. The board is expected to support the manager in the transfer market, targeting players more compatible with his style of play while facilitating the exit of those deemed surplus to requirements. ............

PSG planning to snatch young Juventus winger

 

 

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly plotting a move for Juventus star Francisco Conceicao whose future remains up in the air. ............

 

Former Juventus Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli had even claimed that Conceicao will 100% remain at the club.

 

Nevertheless, with Giuntoli and Thiago Motta now gone, it remains to be seen whether the agreement still stands. ............

 

So with all the uncertainty engulfing the player’s future, PSG could pounce at the opportunity to sway the diminutive winger to the French capital.

 

PSG director Luis Campos is still hoping to extend his Portuguese contingent, so he would love to add Conceicao to the likes of Vitinha, Nuno Mendes and Joao Neves. ............

.

While many Juventus fans would like to see the winger donning the black-and-white stripes next season, it remains to be seen if the club’s hierarchy shares the same vision or will instead focus on other objectives.

Juventus make a decision on Francisco Conceicao as deadline approaches

 

 

Juventus have reportedly opted against activating the release clause of Francisco Conceicao which will expire next month.

 

The Bianconeri signed the 22-year-old on loan from Porto last August, but the deal didn’t include an option or an obligation to buy.

 

Nevertheless, many reports claimed that the parties had struck a gentleman’s agreement which would allow the Portuguese to stay in Turin beyond the current campaign. ............

 

Juventus aren’t prepared to pay €30 million to trigger his release clause.

 

As the source explains, this clause will expire on July 15, and the Bianconeri have already made up their mind. They feel that have already paid €7 million in loan fees, which should be taken into account. ............

 

Juventus are thus counting on the player’s will which will play a fundamental role in the negotiations. The Old Lady’s aim is to keep Conceicao at Continassa but on a less costly operation.

 

The Serie A giants are aiming to drive the price down to €22-24 million.

 

It remains to be seen if the Bianconeri’s strategy will pay off. ............

Why Juventus risk paying more for Francisco Conceicao

 

 

Francisco Conceição has been on loan at Juventus since the start of last season, and the winger is reportedly eager to make his stay in Turin a permanent one. The Portuguese talent has made a strong impression, particularly in recent weeks, and is seen as a player with considerable potential for the future. ............

 

The club now has the option to sign him permanently for 30 million euros, and the player himself is reportedly keen to remain in Turin. However, Juventus is negotiating for a discount on the agreed fee, which has slowed progress in reaching a final agreement. ............

 

Juventus may face a higher cost if they continue to delay. The report states that the winger’s release clause is set to rise to 45 million euros in mid-July, putting pressure on the club to finalise the deal promptly.

 

Conceição’s recent form has convinced many that he would be a valuable long-term asset for Juventus. ............

Igor Tudor is determined Juventus will seal fresh deal for loanee

 

 

Juventus are in advanced discussions to retain Francisco Conceição following his loan spell at the club last season. The Portuguese winger joined the Bianconeri from FC Porto and quickly became one of the most impressive performers in the squad. His displays have left a lasting impact, prompting the club to pursue a permanent transfer.

 

During his loan, Juventus paid €7 million to secure his services and now face the prospect of paying an additional €30 million to make the deal permanent. However, the Bianconeri consider that valuation too high and would prefer the initial loan fee to be deducted from the total sum. ............

 

The winger himself is believed to be eager to continue his development in Turin and is hopeful both clubs can come to terms.

 

Talks are ongoing and a deal is considered likely, especially given manager Igor Tudor’s appreciation of the player. Tudor has made Conceição a key part of his plans and is pushing for the club to finalise his transfer this summer. ............

 

Under Tudor’s guidance, Conceição has flourished and become a crucial element in the team’s tactical structure. His creativity, pace and technical ability have been vital in breaking down opposition defences, and his importance to the side cannot be overstated. ............

Juventus & Porto make progress in Conceicao talks

 

 

Juventus are edging closer to securing an agreement with Porto that would allow them to keep Francisco Conceicao in Turin.

 

Despite his highs and lows, the 22-year-old was one of the few shining lights for the Old Lady last season. He swiftly cemented himself as a fan favourite at the Allianz Stadium thanks to his trickery and tenacity. ............

 

Juventus and Porto have been trying to negotiate a new deal, and the two clubs have at least managed to bridge the gap. ............

 

The source reveals that the Bianconeri have submitted an offer worth €22 million. While the Portuguese giants consider it too low, they have at least dropped their asking price from €30 million (the figure set in the player’s release clause) to €25 million, which means that the two clubs are now only separated by €3 million.

 

It should also be noted that Conceicao’s release clause of €30m will expire on July 15, only to be replaced by a new clause worth €45 million. Therefore, many experts urge Juventus to accelerate their attempts to close the deal, as this increase won’t play in their favour.

Unconventional Conceicao clause emerges to light – Will it scupper Juve’s plans?

 

 

A report in the Portuguese media reveals a curious clause inserted in Francisco Conceicao’s contract with Porto. ............

 

While the Dragao have initially set their asking price at €30 million (which is the value of the player’s release clause), the Bianconeri are hoping to drive the price down to €22 million. Some reports believe that the two clubs could reach an agreement at €25 million.

 

Nevertheless, Conceicao is entitled to receive 20% of the transfer fee thanks to an unusual clause inserted in his Porto contract. ............

 

Therefore, if Juventus were to pay a transfer fee of €30 million, Porto would only receive €24m, with Conceicao collecting the remaining €6m. So it remains to be seen if the Portuguese giants would be willing to accept discounts that would further decrease their profit.

How Conceicao played pivotal role in helping Juventus & Porto reach agreement

 

Juventus and Porto are reportedly on the cusp of striking an accord for the transfer of Francisco Conceicao, and this is no small part thanks to the player’s gesture.

 

The Portugal international largely impressed during his loan stint at the Allianz Stadium. Therefore, the Bianconeri are hellbent on keeping his services on a permanent basis, a sentiment also shared by the winger who only has eyes for Juve. ............

 

Several sources expect the two parties to reach a compromise at €25 million, and Conceicao will certainly help close the gap.

 

As reported in recent days, the winger’s contract with Porto includes an unusual clause, stating that the player is entitled to receive 20% of the transfer fee paid for his services. This is because the Dragao had struggled to match his relatively high wages at Ajax when they brought him back to the club in 2023, so they instead offered him a sell-on fee. ............

 

Conceicao has agreed to relinquish his cut, which means that Juventus can now pay circa €25 million (instead of €30m), while Porto’s share remains intact.

 

Nevertheless, the source notes that the 22-year-old has also earned himself a handsome deal, as Juventus will raise his salary from €2.5 million to a figure worth €5-6 million, depending on add-ons and the achievement of sporting objectives. ............

Juventus Finalizing Deal with Porto to Keep Conceiçao

 

 

Juventus are on the brink of striking an accord with Porto to purchase Francisco Conceiçao. Only the final handshake and the official steps are missing at this point. ............

 

In the end, the Old Lady is said to have obtained a slight discount and a more favorable payment structure. The player and his agent, Jorge Mendes, own part of his card, which help.

 

Conceiçao is eager to stay at Juventus and intends to give his 20 percent, saving Juventus a few million. He’ll get it back throughout his contract. The final sum will be €21/22M plus €5/6M add-ons. The Old Lady expects to shell out roughly €25M. It had already paid €10M, including commissions, to have him on loan last year. He notched 7 goals and 6 assists in 40 appearances. ............

Done deal: Juventus has reportedly agreed a deal to sign Conceicao

 

 

Juventus have successfully concluded negotiations to sign Francisco Conceição on a permanent basis, following his impressive spell on loan last season. The winger joined the Bianconeri one year ago and made a strong impact with his performances, establishing himself as a promising figure within the squad. ............

 

Throughout recent weeks, Juventus have been working to secure his future at the club, with particular urgency given the expiry date of his release clause. With that deadline looming, the club intensified their efforts to avoid triggering a higher fee or facing competition from other sides. ............

 

Journalist Claudio Raimondi revealed how the agreement was reached in the final moments of the clause window. He stated:

“The deal for Chico Conceição is done, €27 million from Porto. The player’s decision to give up his 20% interest in the contract is crucial, as he will recover this sum from his contract in the coming years.” ............
