The Italian club Juventus is intensifying its efforts to finalize the contract with the Portuguese player Francisco Conceição, following the end of his loan period in mid-July and his return to Porto.

According to what was reported by the site "Tutto Mercato", Juventus wants to buy Conceição's contract, but faces obstacles due to the shared ownership of the player among three parties, with Porto holding 70% of the rights, while the player himself retains 20%, and his agent Jorge Mendes owns the remaining 10%.

Conceição's contract with Porto includes a release clause that grants interested clubs the right to sign him until July 15 for 30 million euros, after which the amount will rise to 45 million euros.

Juventus has made an official offer of 22 million euros, while Porto insists on demands of no less than 25 to 30 million euros.

Conceição participated in 40 official matches with Juventus last season, successfully scoring 7 goals and providing 6 assists, contributing a total of 13 goal involvements with the Bianconeri.
