Report – Juventus Open Contract Extension Talks with Quicksilver Forward | OneFootball

Record-time Italian champions Juventus are reportedly hellbent on tying Francisco Conceicao down to a new long-term contract. According to Tuttosport via Calciomercato, the Turin giants have already initiated contact with the player’s entourage to discuss a new deal.

Conceicao joined Juventus from Porto in 2024 on an initial loan deal before signing a permanent contract the following summer. The 23-year-old has since established himself as one of the club’s standout performers, even though last season’s numbers could suggest otherwise.

Despite netting just three goals and adding five assists across 31 Serie A appearances, Conceicao was one of the crucial elements of Juventus’ frontline. In fact, his dribbling ability and directness make him one of the most devastating wingers in Italy’s top flight.

Meanwhile, under-pressure head coach Luciano Spalletti views Conceicao as an indispensable first-team star and wants to make sure the former Ajax man remains at his disposal for years to come.

Our take on Juventus & Conceicao

Conceicao’s current contract doesn’t run out until 2030. Nevertheless, his relatively modest annual salary of ‘only’ €4 million makes Juventus uncomfortable amid growing interest from abroad. Therefore, Spalletti’s men are looking to give the diminutive forward a bumper new deal to convince him to stay put.

Talks between Juventus and the player’s representatives are already underway, with the Bianconeri eager to get the deal over the line as soon as possible. In the meantime, Conceicao continues to shine on the field despite finding the net only once in five Serie A matches this term.
